If you are paying upwards of 14 cents per KWH it pays to install solar. Take last months total bill and divide it by the biled number of KWH. That gives you your actual cost. Example above $583.00/3195=.1825.
Our base system produces on average 1000KWH monthly depending on location. We do the solar insolation for your address. Based on my cost. 1000KWH X .1825 = $182.50 per month, $2190.00 per year. The cost of a Sunchaser8 System DIY installed averages $13,000.00 all in. Return on an investment of $13,000.00/2190.00 = 6 years. After that, the 1000KWH of electricity every month is FREE!
Also note this is our Dec-Jan bill
During the summer months we average 1800KWH usage and produce around 1500KWH
Then we pay about $135.00 per month.
The cost of Sunchaser 8 4595.00
Delivery 48 Contiguous United States 295.00
The cost of 8 solar panels 600 +- watt @ 307.00 each 2456.00
8000W Smart Inverter (On or Off-Grid) 3495.00
Grand Total $10,841.00
And, by DIYing the entire system with the Sunchaser 8 dual axis solar tracker included, you save an additional 15,000 to 30,000 in professional fees and charges.
