cost of solar panels
Do you get the cost in energy from a solar panel?
If the solar panel costs $1000 do you get $1000 worth of energy?
Yes, but depending on a variety of things like where you live, and your electric rates it takes time. I have a system and I should break even in my 6th year. That was taking into account that electric rates increase at an average of 55 annually. In my area that is very low. Last year I think the increase was 7% next year they are talking 12%. So it will more likely be 5 years. The panels are warrantied for 25 years. I expect to save over $50K before they have to be replaced.
