Re: SunEdison Brings 14 MW of Solar Power to Long Island as Part of New York State Initiative
of course you are excluding costs to produce. your 8kw system probably cost you around 18k?? so basically your looking at 15 years to just break even? all guess work here but 18k in a nice nat gas or well rounded investment grade mlp such as epd should yield you around $720 per year or $60 per month on average netting you a bill of $95 per month and the sun does not even have to shine. plus after 18 years you wont even have to worry about have outdated equipment to get off your roof. it is cool though, I just don't like solar. take away gov subsidies and its not economic. I would rather have my tax money returned to me than have it used for solar and wind when we have cheap plentiful natural gas.
