Solar installation and benefits working well in other countries, so ... red tape, of course:

And the reason why U.S. might be so slow in taking this on, is in the following graph:

Major utilities only get back 6.5% of the share. Imagine their reaction to American citizens becoming financially free from gas/coal companies!?
And imagine if the U.S. government was the project planner (14%) or even part of the Fund/Bank (11%) and contracted out development and manufacturing (similar in idea to the hundreds/thousands of military contracts so easily given out to multitudes of companies), and thus supporting huge job creation (in non-military goals) and gaining economically from a reasonable percent share to be used in social services (ie, education, medicare, VA modernization, etc.)
IMAGINE!
