It's really supportive to hear Tim's and Larry's testimony. So often I hear or read that solar is too problematic because we need massive solar farms, which will be expensive and have significant ecological impact. (My speculation: this comes from energy company propaganda, indicating they don't want to take losses on their current infrastructure or loose a source of revenue.)
With abundant ground space and no HOA, I've been astonished how cheaply PV can be installed. My current cost estimate is ~$.30/watt including all material but not labor. Selling at local wholesale rates and with no incentives, my payback period is about 5 years. 3-4 years if I am avoiding retail rates. If someone wants to argue that PV is expensive, I am certainly willing to set them straight.
