Currys in 'high street solar panels' shocker!

Some sunny news from Sharp and Currys today: the pair have joined forces to flog solar panels on the high street. Or, more precisely, the streets of Fulham, Croydon and West Thurrock; if you live oop north near the Wrexham factory that makes 'em, you're stuffed for the time being. An average system for a 3-bed like the one pictured should cost £6000 after grant, slash your electricity bill in half and stop two tonnes of CO2 heading to the atmosphere every year. You can't actually fondle the panels in-store, but you can chat with Currys' Sharp-trained staff, so they should know their onions. And their 25 year-guaranteed polycrystalline panels. 01/08/06 update: click through for a pic of the Currys' solar set-up
