Dang....that is a nice installation.
I noticed a few screenshots from some sort of solar production website. Did that come with your system, and if so, what's it called?- DavidComment

Enphase made the micro inverters... they also supplied the monitoring system. Its called "Enlighten". It works very well...
I've had solar for 11 months.. I could not be more happy with its value, reliability, and invisibility.Comment

Well, here I am in month 11 of my 12 month relevancy period. I have produced ( or consumed) a credit each and every month, but this one.
A full 11 months of nearly 24x7 air conditioned bliss, for $80, as of today. I'll take that.
I might pull a $20 or so credit this month, which will leave me owing SCE $60 for the year... instead of having to have paid them around $3200 for the year.
My $15k investment divided by $3k in savings = a 5 year payback, with 20+ years of production remaining.
I love solar...Comment

If you get a moment, you might want to contact your installer and suggest they set up a free Solarreviews.com page (I noticed they aren't listed). With the new installer-sharing policy, a direct link to that page can be posted in the forum, making it easier for others to find and work with them (instead of relying on PM's). Assuming you aren't here to fish for referrals, of course.CS6P-260P/SE3000 - http://tiny.cc/ed5ozxComment

Then there is the grid access fee for solar customers they might be able to push through, numbers as high as $10 per solar kW eventually have been tossed around. Based on what we know so far you can't just use your 2015 data to project payback with any kind of certainty.Comment

My net cost for 7.1kW Bosch is less than $14k. It covers my home 100% + 2 EVs. I'm in my 10th month of net metering. My bill? I'm having problem use up my credits lol
ROI? If you included the 2 EVs at average of 12k and 15k miles each per year. It is way too soon....Attached FilesComment

End of day two progress.....
The south facing roof (where the panels will be installed) has come off completely, some vents were relocated, all 100% repapered, rack mounts lagged in and tiles going back down. Sparky has run the attic conduit for the panels and put a subpanel in the garage so if / when my wife trades in the Tahoe for a Tesla or other EV.... were ready.
Monday is a inspection, then on to the actual install later next week. I'll keep you all posted!
Things are moving right along....
Would you please PM me the installer infor? Thanks.Comment

But yes, for what its worth, the monthly minimum for EV-A has increased from $0.93 to $10 as of Sept 1.Comment

Yes, TOU-D-A, sorry. The minimum bill can not be paid by net metering credits. The CA climate credit will cover some of it...CS6P-260P/SE3000 - http://tiny.cc/ed5ozxComment
