Solar panels are really not very expensive if you shop around. I got some 180 watt panels for $80 each recently.

$80 is a lot of money to a homeless person.
Yeah, it's probably two full days of collecting and recycling aluminum. (Not trying to belittle the homeless, I only mention this because it is how the homeless people in my old neighborhood would earn a little bit of cash. They don't deserve all the scorn they endure and I help them out every chance I get.)
