The first cost effective use of solar will probably be to supplement the input of a coal fired plant. I think the plant near Barstow is still operational:

Technically, both hydroelectric and biomass are solar technologies, each providing about 3% of US energy. I'm not certain, but suspect there may be cost effective biomass installations over land fills and in feed lots. Moreover, solar water and home heating are cost effective solar applications.
