Checking out solar like installing solar? Or picking a solar provider? Picking s solar provider won’t be cheaper but better karma.

Oh if considering solar - absolutely do it. We haven’t had a bill since installation (2016). Totally worth it.

I was thinking along the lines of installing solar panels on the roof. Not sure though how much that's going to help in the long run.

My solar system went online on September and I'm looking at about a 6 year RTO. My electric bills have been $0 but I still have to pay down the cost of the install.

If you don’t mind me asking, how much energy did you consume before going solar and how much was the installation?

I averaged about 600kwh/month. The solar part was around $30k for an 8kwh system (I had a 16kwh battery backup also installed)
