I haven't been to the villas, and I don't know anybody who lives there. However, what I hear is that the people there already have grid power, which they don't pay for, and they are very often targets of theft. I have to imagine that hauling in an expensive solar panel in order to conserve energy paid for by the electric company would be a very difficult sell there. I don't think many of the shacks there have air conditioning, and the air conditioners are the culprit there.

If the objective is to keep your TV and radio on during the blackouts, I think a car battery is probably a better choice than a solar panel.
