Something To Talk About. The US pays more than 2x per watt for solar modules compared to the Europe and more than that compared to other markets. And now it seems to me that we may be getting even less in some instances. I’m not saying that all solar panels are weaker and thinner than they were before or even what the spec sheet says, but I think it’s something people are saying and I’m hearing, and certainly something we need to talk about.
