I don't know about being useless, their production does go down during the winter months, and rises during the Summer months, the difference is the amount of sunlight between the two seasons, and the cold tends to degrade the panels production.

Let's take a notoriously snowy state and use it to generalize about solar everywhere.

Arizona does GREAT with solar.

Solar is a better idea in some places than others. And even in the places where it does poorly, like Minnesota, what it CAN produce, especially in summer, reduces fossil fuel consumption and greenhouse gas production.

This is a case of "every little bit helps."

Now, the cost efficiency is a SEPARATE issue, and definitely needs to be addressed.
