Since I had already produced a fully functional solar panel, what is preventing me from producing another or a million more?  Nothing, that's what.

What is to stand out, about this particular solar panel is not that is working; what stands out is just how much power it is producing, aside from the exceptional durability and structural strength.

Of course Twilight had read up on how much power a regular, commercial solar panel is expected to produce; but why settle for the expected norm, when you can get more out of it?

"I should be marketing the product, towards institutions of learning!" I ponder.

The natural first step; is the local University; the center of learning and science.  Where else, but the local University?  Where else, indeed.

Twilight, is the moment between night and day

Twilight, is the border between light and dark

Twilight, is the border between life and death

Twilight, is also the area where learning and study is meaningful and even possible

Twilight, is also a Pony.  However.

Twilight is, and can not be avoided, or bypassed.

"They do have a local University, I hope!" I ponder; "Or, I will have to look for other Universities in the state, unless I could establish a University of my own!" I consider.

Since the cinematic sofa in my living room is comfortable; I am sitting there, as I browse for the university I am looking for.  Since April Trotter has not signed up yet, I could not ask her.

In the end, I do find a University.  I knew they have them; I just did not know which University I should be addressing, or which address I were to send the letter to.

While I am at it; I had already established and registered a business to front my activity, I had in mind.  The form is simple enough, Celestia knows I have learned how to fill in a form.

In the end, it proved easy to find the University and the address; just as it was easy, to find the rest of the details I had been looking for. Now, I just had to formulate the letter; in which, I offer them what I had in mind.

"Dear Headmaster!

I am Twilight Sparkle, representing the Twilight Quantum Electronics.

Now, I am offering you, to see the marvels of what technology can provide, in order to make your life easier; both in person and for your faculty.

If you do not mind; I would love to demonstrate, what I have to offer.

With your permission, I could install the solar panels onto your roof, thus providing you with free electricity for the foreseeable future.   If you accept my offer; this would also take care of roof maintenance, of course.

I supply the specs on the back, so you can get a picture of my offer.

Yours sincerely, Twilight Sparkle of the Twilight Quantum Electronics

Ps: I will also include a working model, in the form of a panorama Cottage.

"Now, I just hope she is accepting my proposal; or I will be forced to face the option between just blunt force installing it anyway, or find another University, High-school or Tech-company that does accept my offer!"  I ponder.

But I would have preferred to have them accepting, even if I intend to install these panels all across the nation and beyond.  In short order; that is, of course.

If this goes according to plan; only my capacity of producing and installing is the limiting factor.

I know the Google Translate- will be an issue; so I just have to pick up some alternative means, to present my proposal to them.  The specs and the panorama should be speaking for themselves, but still.  You never know.

"There goes that Panorama!" I ponder; "But, I made more!" I continue, with a bemused snicker.

Well, but of course I had made more; these are my first marketing tool, with which I present my product to each and every prospective customer.

Since I had read up, on the theory behind how the panel works and how I could improve upon the original design; of course, I had read up on what the going price for a panel is and what it costs installing them as well.  Naturally; I market the product at a reduced price for the first few, and some discount for Universities of course.  How could I not.

While I had prepared everything, I had been preparing for every imaginable contingency; but the waiting, is something I simply could not prepare for.  Once the offer had been presented, and everything had been sent to the customer; all I can do, is to wait.

I love books, and studying.  I love my books, did I mention that?

But, what good is learning; if you do not put it to good use, helping your friends and the community at large?

Since I had managed to produce a working prototype of my solar panel, I know I can produce another; I can produce more, as many as I want, not to mention installing them.  Well, this had been the easy part.

Presenting the offer is also easy, foal's play; but to convince others, may be a different matter.  This, is where the stress and uncertainty comes into play.  Still, I had to push forwards.  I have to present my product; in order to see my product in use and help others.

I may not live in Equestria; I had never been there; but what does that change, exactly nothing.  I will help the community I am currently living in.

"How long will it take them, to respond?" I ponder; "I know the postal service may take anywhere between one and three days, at the very least!" I consider.

"But, waiting is the worst!" I mutter.

I would love to assume, they do pick up the proposal directly; just as I would love for them to examine, what I had offered them.  I don't want them to reject it out of hoof; but I don't want them to just accept it without all the due consideration, either.

With all the effort I had put into this project, I want to have the recognition fairly and honestly.

While I had put the price fairly low, at least in their view; but it is a serious and sincere offer on my part.  Even if the project had started, just for me to ensure I can power my Mecha safely on the long term.
