That's great! In South Africa we have 4000 Megawatts of solar power now, thanks to government incompetence with regards to rolling electricity blackouts/ load shedding. Though it's all private, so I fear that if (and that's a very big if) the government gets its shit together with electricity supply, some of it might be taken offline, especially in commercial applications where electricity from the government's coal plants might be cheaper. I think most home owners will keep their solar though, because electricity is expensive in price for ordinary people. So if they've invested in solar, there is no ways they're going back to expensive government supplied electricity.
