been talking about this for a couple of years now. My room is already pretty green, its fully underground, so its naturally climate-controlled, i use led lighting to keep the power consumption low to begin with.
Problem i have with a PV cells are thus:
90% are made in China, and Sulfuric acid used in their making is dumped into the rivers, which in turn means that my bying of a pv cell is causing more damange then my use of it redeems.
Here in the north east, we dont have enough sun light to use a single cell very economically, so i am yet to get a few (and i just saw a pv decently cheap, i just need an inverter for it), and create a rotating mount for reflectors for it, to make use of more solar power then the thing normally gets. though i think i have a neat idea, let me draw it out, and post it here, so you can have an idea of what my idea is for this mount
