Inverter costs will run between 13 and 17 cents per watt.
If I get a used 3,800 inverter, stick 3,300 watts worth of panels on it that will come to 15 cents a watt.
So 26 cents a watt for panels, 15 for inverters, 41 cents a watt.
Sure I could perfect match everything together for 3 or 4 times the cost, mmmm I'll pass.
I expect a 3,300w array to make at least 16kwh per day or $1.12 worth of power per day. IF electricity stays at 7 cents a kwh, but our idiot governor signed a renewable power mandate that will likey cause electricity prices to sky rocket.
For the first 3,300w set pay back will take 3 years and about 2 months for the panels and inverter only.
By the time I add additional hard ware, unistrut or superstrut, other racking hardware, should be less than 5 years for sure.
Maybe find some suckers to resell panels to, maybe a little less than 5 years.
I pitty the fools who think a 10 to 20 year pay back is acceptable. Ain't nobody got time for that.
