Is it worth the solar panels I'm getting?
(lemmy.world)
I'm sorry for posting this here. There isn't a solar panel instance, nor did I see anything for electricians. I know there's been a lot of gripe with certain solar companies (solgen being in litigation, and others) but I didn't hear much about freedom forever, since they're new to Seattle area where I'm doing this. Reddit seems to hate this company. But the price seems alright. I'm paying $22k for 7.4kw but getting it down to 15k after the state stipend. Less than $3 a watt which I'm guessing is really good. I'm planning to pay it off in 2 or 3 years. Not the full 25 which will cost me so much more. Can anyone point me in the right direction and if I'm making the right decision?
While I can't speak to your region and local subsidies, I've recently been looking into solar and this seems comparable to offers I saw, in terms of total price for the system and it's size. I'm in the EU though, so no clue how comparable these values should even be.
It seems crazy expensive compared to what it would cost in the Netherlands. No advertisement, but check prices on e.g. the site Solar Bouwmarkt. There's still loads of costs aside from the panels themselves, so please add everything up. Still, if you think that was a good price I wonder if you know the costs involved.
I had assumed it's everything, including installation. The offer shown includes inverter and all the usual. if it's just panels, that would obviously not be an acceptable price.
