How many US solars have been successful? Also note, GE will be doing thin film, which is the less efficient, but less expensive solar panel. They will be in direct competition with First Solar.

Can't understand why GE, which is attempting to portray itself as a 'green' company, takes up the solar technology that is toxix (thin film made of i believe the 4th most toxic chemical).

I personally cannot see GE taking on the chinese solars, who are much, much farther ahead in technology and experience, let alone size. The only fighting chance i give GE is the bankroll they can put behind their project. But is it a money pit?

I am not so sure this is a good idea. Unless 'BUY AMERICAN' comes through for them.
