Photovoltaic Solar Shingles

Dow Chemical Co. has announced its line of DOW POWERHOUSE Solar Shingle which consists of panels that can be integrated into rooftops with standard asphalt shingles. I think this is a very positive step in the right direction in going mainstream for home owner solar production. Apparently the cost for installation is lower for this compared to that of conventional solar panels.
