Who has solar on their rooftops? I'm tired of the high electric bills. New AC unit last year (thanks Shawn! @Motleyone) really helped, knocking about 60+ bucks a month off in the summer. Talked with a SolarCity guy, and frankly, was disappointed with the savings. Turns out to be about a net savings of ~$50/month on a 3K sq. ft. home. Oh, and then there's AZ's finest in the legislature, making them subject to property tax, reducing that savings to about $35/mo. I was hoping that solar would be more of a savings than that. Seems like not much return for a 20 year commitment on the lease. Am I missing something here? Better technology right around the corner? I sense desperation from APS and SRP, based on their proposals for fees on those who have solar...
Are there still decent incentives to buy? Good loan programs that result in better net savings? Any firsthand experiences? Just wait and see, and try and minimize usage for now?
