The financial incentives drove this, 100%.

As an Australian, with solar panels, and a not-too-terrible feed in tariff, I'm hoping we can cram more energy production in to less space from solar so that I can upgrade my system in the decade to come, hopefully to match the hybrid I'd like to buy that doesn't yet exist :)

Hopefully by then all the hybrids will have ultrathin panels on the roof and you might not even need as much fixed solar!
