We went with Paramount Solar, but there are a lot more out there now. Our project took over 6 months from first consideration to turning it on; most of that was the permit process and the OK from PGE to activate. We also leased, but pre-paid the 20 year lease.
The last full year before the solar system, our electricity was a little under $5K. July '14 through June '15 it was $2200. The pre-paid lease was $15K for 20 years- if you do the math, that's just about 18.7% return on my investment. I'm happy.
Wow, six months to be up and running. We started in Nov and was turned on Jan 30th. About 3.5 months. Once the county signed off, it only took pge one week to give the ok to turn it on. We are in Amador County so it must be faster here.
We use about 13 kwh a day so thats about 400 kwh a month
May get a system from these guys up in Mt Shasta
Looks like a 450kwh Grid tie system would run a little over $7,500.00>>>http://www.wholesalesolar.com/enphas...ems#solarworld
It would take about 6 years to pay for it-self, that ain't to shabby
How-ever most of my investments that I do, Like to get my return in 4 years
May-be if I wait a little longer for-em to go down in price than I would get my return in 4 years
Isnt this the last year for the Irs credit? I have been thinking about jumping on board for the house too.
I have 1200 watts on the toyhauler already.
