RE: Power Companies having Trap Plans

in #life7 years ago (edited)

Check out my system i really have to disagree on the cost . I have less than 10k into my 5kw solar system and no longer have a power bill. And it increases property value. Going solar really isnt that expensive unless you let a 3rd or 4th party put there hands into the mix . There is a lot of people out there that is willing to help you out also going solar. Its something that requires research and time though. If you just jump blindly you can spend 25k plus on a similar system. I cant say anything negative about the solar system being there. I dont ever notice it being up there until i get ready to spray them off when theirs a ton of pollen.

Sort:  

Are you talking about a complete system. Battery storage and all? And is that price with you doing the labor? From my understanding are the power walls the batteries Tesla sells?

Complete grid tie with system that is over what i use in power here you just have to pay for the privalage of being connected to there grid . I basically use the grid as a much more efficient means of battery storage. The power company here gets credit for producing green energy and i get a reliable grid . Its only down when some one hits a power pole .My plans are to get a tesla battery system for backup storage . like weather related I spent quite some time researching the best way to go solar and the cheapest but good quality . I can get the exact number but materials was around 8k with 30% tax credit.
Yes , i did do all the labor my self. I knew i could not afford to let a crew come in and do it plus i have the benefit i kinda beefed up the supporting system it sits on . I have double the attachments was for wind. Which saved me already because we got snow a few months after i put them up. (We dont see snow here first snow in over 20 years that was over 1/2 inch deep.) And yes power walls are like the ones tesla sells. But that isnt the only ones sold . Just one of the most known here.
