Can you share your approximate square footage of roof as well as the amount electricity you generate?
What was the cost? Did you finance?
Please share which details you can.

I believe our roof is 17x50 feet (1/3 of the roof is sky lights and HVAC). The total cost was 20k. Back then there was a 25 percent federal tax credit which I think is now 30%? You also get money from NJ (TRECs) based on kWh’s produced in addition to the electricity you save. As you can see in the chart we build up a lot of credits in the spring that then get used up pretty fast in December. Most of the solar companies can give you a proposal remotely using satellite imagery.

This is great, thanks so much for the details.
Hope this also helps someone else. I'm hoping for similar results, we have less roof, but less sky lights.
