I've invested $5K in SolarCity myself.
Technology is advancing at an exponential rate often called the "Law of Accelerating Returns." If futurist predictions prove correct, we'll have advanced molecular manufacturing by around 2025, and possibly the replacement of humanity by vastly advanced machines a decade or two later.
This is a chronicle of our journey to that future, one advancing technology article at a time. I post the more significant and interesting articles as I come across them.

Solar Really Can Be Cheaper Than Coal
http://oilprice.com/Alternative-Energy/Solar-Energy/Solar-Really-Can-Be-Cheaper-Than-Coal.html
"Swanson’s law...stipulates that for every doubling of global manufacturing capacity, the dollar per watt cost of PV cells falls by 20 percent."

Get ready for $10 oil
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/ready-10-oil-230002605.html
Although I'm glad petro-nations are weakened by cheap oil, I think this is only bad news for alternative energy development and adoption. It won't stop it...but it could slow it down by years.
Ooops. Updated to proper link.
