What's the interaction between the home solar market and the grid solar market. Is the cost p/kw following the same curve?
Even if these two use the same basic technology, I think they are essentially two completely separate "markets."

The inverters used in the residential market versus the solar plant market are usually quiet different and, IMHO, form two distinct markets. Reductions in the inverter cost for solar plant deployments would result in a reduction in the home market, but the relationship is not as direct as the relationship between the panels since you would rarely be able to use the same inverter in both markets.
