Re: Solar Panels Cost of Ownership
Hi newatbeinggreen,
So what can you tell us about the system? Base price? Incentivized price (what you really paid after all the rebates & credits)? The rated capacity in kW? How much energy it actually produced in kW*Hr?
I'd also ask what you've been paying for energy. And what they're paying you for energy. The rates not the actual $$$? Don't be surprised when the rates are different. How different would be helpful for folks considering a system.
I outlined the steps in another post on how you can calculate your electric rate from solar for the next 20 years.
I wish you good luck with your system!
