For decades, the push for solar power has stalled not on public support, but on cost. That might be about to change with the launch of a unique tax program that's exciting some industry veterans.
Gary Garber is one such veteran. Garber built his first solar panels from scratch back in 1976. They went up on his parents' roof top in nearby Walnut Creek, Calif. Today he runs Sun Light & Power, a 60-employee solar panel installation firm that's been behind some of the San Francisco Bay Area's biggest solar power arrays.
