A recent storm ripped up my old roof so now I am in a position to get panels. I've been reading here as much as I can.
My average electric bill is $420/month. I face SW with no obstructions or shade. According to tesla, panels that can produce 18kw will cost me $36k not including tax credits. So that would be more or less a 5 year pay off including credits.
Obviously I have seen all the negativity on Tesla Energy and I am leery of moving forward with them. I am calling a recommended local company tomorrow to see pricing.
I verified Tesla's numbers on the calculator recommended here- pnwatts? And it seemed to confirm the output.
I am in Westchester, NY and plan on staying in this home at least 10 more years.
The question is, does the whole thing make sense for me. Is Tesla so bad I should just forget them?
interested to hear opinions..
