Enterprising startups (Sungevity for example) exploit the growing interest in solar power for either public or private use. In spite of its advantages, this system has proven itself to be costly on installation, slow and with a few unwanted side effects. Installing a solar panel usually involves damaging the structural
integrity of the roof by drilling holes and affixing racks using bolts, all in a time intensive process. Aside the hassle of the installer, it also comes with headaches for the customer because of the large bills to be payed.
Trying to find a more efficient installation approach, DRI Energy (solar power roofing contractor) has come up with a logical answer. DRI uses a strong adhesive to hold the panels in place instead of damaging the building with nuts and bolts, proving this method to be cost efficient and fast.
Due to obvious commercial benefits other companies will probably follow DRIs example leading to the spread of this type of alternative energy.

That innovation is fantastic. I am excited to one day have solar power in my own house.
