FYI - In the news recently, they discuss the "Solar Power Boom" ... I guess the industry is now in a slump.

As mentioned a friend had a company give him a quote for a solar system, here are the numbers. (Best I can remember)
The ideal roof angle is 35 degs his is 22.
Cost equipment and installation.   $51,000
Pay back 5.5 years at $0.73 per kw/h. This does not take into account, taxes (property, income), insurance, and interest if panels are financed. The $0.73 per kw/hr is not written in stone and can be changed.

Friends of ours  were telling us that their neighbor had just had the panels installed on his house .....he told our friends that he felt it was a good deal but thought that leasing them and letting them look after any problems was the way to go ....
