Two years ago I installed solar on my home and I am very happy with it. I installed it myself as I was an electrician for 40 years.
The system is just under 4KW, I have 22 175 watt panels built by Sharp.
The system cost me $23,000.00 of which I got $14,000.00 back from the electricity company and about $6,000.00 back in my income tax. So it cost me $3,000.00 which I made back already.
This month my electric bill that I just paid is $94.75 for the entire month. We use the air conditioner all the time when we are home and the electric rates on Long Island NY are among the highest in the nation.
I am tied into the grid.
The system saves me about $1,500.00 a year or a little more than $100.00 a month
