    80 cents per kilowatt hour!

    You owe it to yourself to put a solar balcony on.

    You can usually get a 600 watt system that basically plugs into your wall and back feeds electricity to your house for something like $700.

    Depending on your locale and climate that could generate anywhere between 3 and 6 KW hours a day on average every day year over year.

    It would take approximately one year to pay for itself.

      I have a large solar array, which makes a huge difference, but it definitely doesn’t zero my bill. The most expensive hours are not during prime solar production, and I don’t have a solar battery setup yet

      Have any links to such a system? I’d be all for it but everything I find seems to be intentionally confusing, pushing for you to just bite the bullet and pay a contractor to do everything, including trusting they aren’t charging you out the ass.
