yes.. some folks do.. I have a friend who used to install panels in Las Terrenas.. but he said the problems were that the panelsthemselves are not, in fact, designed for tropical use and do not last that long.. plus, they are often vandalized,
It is really much better to adapt to a different schedule
as said
siesta from 2 to 4
Las Terrenas operates like that
and smart folks in Santo Domingo do as well..
if they possibly can
You never really get use to the heat, you just find ways to tolerate it. In the Capital, hot, hot and dusty. The thing I really do not like about the heat is that it seems to zap the energy right out of you.
Dominicans like to steal solar panels. Everyone I knew that had Solar panels had them stolen - probably by the company that installed them too.
But remember that is part of the charm of living there.
Don't feel left out, they may be working a different part of the country right now. They'll make it to you soon enough.
Please show me the payback period for the price of the panels/charge controllers/batteries/inverter system that will provide me with 700 kWh a month versus the DR rates for electricity.
jd426 - There is virtually no one here running air conditioners from the energy supplied by their solar panels.
There is virtually no one here paying less than what you are paying for electricity (11 cents per kWh) in Florida.
Personal comments: I was just in Florida for 10 days and I hated living with AC 24/7 as it is used in FL. I also dislike Florida in general. Give me the west coast of the USA any time over the east coast.

The east coast of Florida is a staging area for zombies created in Haiti.
The Haitian zombies are neurologically engineered to destroy solar panels and attack Canadian tourists. Last week some news managed to leak out when it was reported that Canadians were jumping out of tour buses west of Puerto Plata after shouting "they're coming to kill me!"
Some experts say the Canadians were carrying small solar chargers which give off vibrations that attract the zombies.
At this point, who knows.

Are you questioning me? Sounds like you're one of them, maybe contracted by them.
I don't have to tell you anything.
Very defensive. I'm still not quite convinced of this story. When I googled it your post came up, so I guess it is true. Who knows.
