Let the Good Times Roll with Solar Power!
On December 21st
In my June 3, 2009 blog post, titled “Changing My Mind on a Dime” – I talked about using the sun to power cars soon….
Well, guess what? It’s here!
Earlier this year, Ford, and Sunpower agreed to a partnership that will allow purchasers of Ford plug-in vehicles the ability to charge their cars.
Sunpower’s president and CEO, Tom Werner, says “This is taking solar power mainsteam” – and I think he’s right!
The Ford-Sunpower “Drive Green for Life” program will install enough panels on a customers roof to satisfy the energy demands for an electric vehicle that drives about 1,000 miles per month.

Good times ahead, that’s for sure!
