Bradley Zane, the president and owner and president of Bonded Electric, includes the installation of solar panels in his business.He has operations in Park City and San Louis Obispo, California.He said solar panels are "picking up steam, given the global environment."

He compared the heavy use of solar panels in California with the sparse use in Utah."California has high energy costs," he said."Also people are environmentally aware.And, he said, California provides tremendous tax incentives.Power companies also buy back excess solar energy consumers produce.

Zane, like Hyatt, sees a major problem of getting word out about solar panels."The marketing is not here in Park City.You have to ask for it to find it."

In Europe they are dead serious about global warming, Zane said.

says Bradley Zane, owner of Bonded Systems Design in San Louis Obispo. "When all of these systems are cobbled together and operated out of one server, it really makes it nice for the home owner."

Zane adds that even people who are self-confirmed Luddites, who are resistant to this technology, get used to it and really end up loving the comfort and convenience it provides.

"It was unheard of to have these systems in homes that were less than 8,000 square-feet 15 years ago," says Zane. "Now I have people putting them in 2,000 square-foot homes."

Many baby boomers are down-sizing to smaller homes, but they still want those homes outfitted with the latest home automation gadgetry that they're used to in their larger homes. A similar trend exists for people who are buying or building their second or third homes and want those homes automated just like their first home.

"When you have people who own homes with these systems in them and they go and build new homes, these systems provide such comfort and convenience that these are line items right at the top of the budget list, just like your appliances or kitchen cabinets," says Zane.
