Natalie, one of my clients, had a mother who resembled Erica in many ways. Natalieâs mother had been raped as a young woman; during her childhood, Natalie repeatedly heard that nothing she suffered could ever compare with her motherâs suffering. Natalie felt as if her own experience didnât matter.
The cost of installing solar power on a mid-sized home is between $30,000 to $40,000 dollars, which covers about 30 panels. If youâre connecting off the grid, expect a higher price tag to cover the cost of extra wiring and materials. Those 30 panels will produce about 8350 kW hours of energy a year or 22 kW hours a day.
As with traditional solar, the front-loaded costs can deter many homeowners who are interested in this project. If you are building a new home, you will most likely invest $10,000 in roof installation. Installing solar shingles will bring this cost up to around $30,000 before incentives. This may seem like a steep incline, but if youâre the type to look at the big picture, envision recouping this fee with solar energy savings over time. Solar shingles will also add value to your home.
