How Much Does It Cost To Install Solar?
Is going solar for no cost a real option? While many homeowners save, some consumers end up paying more. Consumers need to know how many kWh they produce in a given year to accurately weigh the cost of their current provider (electric company) and new provider (solar). What you need to know as a consumer is that your solar kWh production in a given year should exceed (preferably 120%) of your electric consumption. Then you can accurately determine if solar is the right fit for you. There are many variables to consider. (county permitting, distance from the warehouse, solar panel type, warranties, etc.) It is best to seek out a professional experienced in your area.

Increase In The Cost of Electricity
The cost of electricity is increasing every year. As natural gas prices rise, so do electricity bills. (instert link to another website). Coupled with inflation, it making more economic sense to own solar at a lesser or similar cost. With solar, the homeowner will own their electricity, receive a government incentive in the form of a tax credit(link tax credit), fix their electricity at a cost that is often less than the electric company, and increase the value of the home.
