This is the kind of stuff that has me holding off on buying solar. Why should I take out a loan now when that money can get me a significantly better system in 5 years?

it should drive panel costs down, so you can overinstall capacity, which you could equate to a better system. still will need batteries to store the power for night etc., but yeah, looking forward to this tech making panels significantly cheaper and perhaps more effecient.
