Solar Panels How They Work
What are the Pros and Cons of Solar Panels, and how much would they cost to install in Australia?
I was curious on the price of maintenance of panels, and the Rebate that the Australian Government offers.This is in terms of installing panels for a typical residential home in Melbourne. And will Solar Panels save you money? If so how much will it save you, and how long will it take for it to pay off.
PLEASE tell me everything about Solar Panels! How they work etc… 
Thanks in advance.
Here are some of the pros of solar panels:
* Federal and state tax credits
* Lower energy bills
* Sale of any unused power generated to the utility company
* No environmental pollution
* Sunlight does not cost anything
Here are the negatives to using solar panels:
* The initial purchase cost may be high, sometimes running up to one hundred thousand dollars for a very large home with high energy needs
* Installation costs are additional
* The most efficient panels usually cost more
* Crystalline panels are fragile, so they require additional protection and can be easily broken
* Thin film panels are less fragile, but are also less effective
