Description:
I am trying to get a solar manufacturing plant and distributors ship started in my state. With the new thin-film technology out there for solar panels. I think my area is the best place to start this plant because I have talked to the governor of the state of Tennessee and they are willing to do whatever it takes to get this plant here.
Because I'm a firm believer go big or go home I think this needs to be the biggest plant in the world. Because they have started building a plant in Georgia before they even broke ground they have sold $500 million worth of solar cell's and it's only going to get bigger this is the technology of the future and the plant needs be big enough to handle the demand. In my area we have the resources to handle this kind of output with the infrastructure capable of supporting such company and the willingness of the state to do whatever it takes to get it here the average cost of start up plant is about 150 million.
