Other points you might like to add.

  • With a handful of large energy companies dominating the market we can not trust electricity retailers to offer solar owners a fair price for solar power
  • Solar power is cleaner than fossil fuels. Once installed, solar power produces no harmful C02 or other pollution. This value is not reflected in the price it receives
  • Solar systems produce more electricity when we need it most. 
  • "Distributed" solar like residential rooftop solar only uses a fraction of the "network" compared to large scale generationRooftop solar power is also more efficient to distribute. Up to 10% or more of electricity from large fossil fuel generation is lost in transporting the electricity. 
  • Solar power can help reduce power bills for non-solar consumers. Because of all of the points above, solar is more efficient. If the cost savings were passed on across the grid all consumers would save money.
