Cash
5-7 Years is typical projected ROI. Bigger bills will happen faster.
What should be considered when factoring ROI?…
- Tax Credit will give you NET cost. You would never achieve this tax credit unless you went solar.
- 6.8% yearly average rate increase with PG&E over time. See historic rate increases on our Tariffs page.
- Every dollar given to utility is rent money. Solar is an investment in your future. Home value studies have proven day 1 is the real ROI.
Reality is you just quit renting. You are now no longer at the mercy of rate increases. One less variable in your family’s financial well being.
Homes with solar continue to sell faster and for more money…
