  Right now, the price for a kilowatt is about $0.14. At that price, the facility should pay for itself in about 15 years. So, with a useful life of 30 years, we can all see the benefit.
  
  Other benefits include:
  -- No water issues
  -- No natural gas to import from unstable places
  -- No control by Nigeria, or by another country
  -- No foreign exchange required to
  pay for imported fuel/gas
  -- No oil of gas required as batter.
  
  Way to go!
  
  ITEM: Every energy project ought to have a component solar panel sub-project, as part of the mix, for sustainable development.
  
  Further, the government should without further delay set measurable targets for solar power/systems, region-by-region!
