Too Bad IKEA Doesn’t Sell….Solar Panels?
I’m not sure if you remember those hilarious radio ads where the title finishing line was “Too bad IKEA doesn’t sell friends”. Doesn’t due it much justice I guess you kinda had to hear it, but those who did know what I’m talking about! Anyways, I always preach the role that major chains and companies have to play in order to get the green ball rolling. Well it seems IKEA might be making a small step in the right direction.
Now I’m not saying this is for sure and that you will be able to buy your solar panels at IKEA in the next couple of months, but there is a possibility it is coming soon. IKEA has announced it plans to invest $77 million into its GreenTech energy fund, a fund that goes towards figuring out how to produce affordable solar panels, efficiency meters, and energy efficient lighting – things that are around, but not necessarily common, and definitely not cheap. Click here to learn all the details.
So its not for sure or “written in stone” that IKEA is going to be selling cheap and affordable solar panels that can be put together, like everything from IKEA, with an Allen key. However, they are making progress and thats what counts. Also if anyone out there is able to find the IKEA radio Ad that I am talking about, it would be greatly appreciated. I have yet to find it.
Keep it Green,

That comic is hilarious!
No no no, hes doing it all wrong!
We don’t think it’s as easy as your everyday peel-and-stick adhesive bumper sticker, but just the same. It sounds like a major improvement from the tedious drilling and constructing that goes into the installation of ordinary solar panels. The Lumeta PowerPly solar panels are glued in place on the roof, using adhesives normally used in roofing. So far the method/product is only available for commercial buildings, but we hope an application for private homes will be in the market soon.
As a Freshman, I am always researching online for articles that can help me get further ahead. Thanks a million!
Hello hunnie, sweet website! I really appreciate this post.. I was wondering about this for a long time now. This cleared a lot up for me! Do you have a rss feed that I can add?
