There's no free money in this world.
Too good to be true because in reality, you're not saving anything. You're spending. As a consumer, you just have a short time horizon with your checkbook. As a business, they have a long time horizon and are willing to wait a few years until this becomes profitable for them and unprofitable for you.
i don't really get your point.....
i pay for electricity regardless of if i had solar or not...if the solar paid for 80% of my electricity and it cost me nothing to get the solar....example...
let's say my average usage is 750KWH and i pay the electric company what ever amount that is..if solar covers 70% of that then that would leave me with 225KWH to pay to the Solar company and 525 KWH were free. Solar companies lock in whatever rate they charge for the 20 years. Let's say it some ridiculous # like 15 cents per KWH(i pay 7.5 currently) that leaves me with a $34 bill that month.
i would be saving money...you can't really argue that....it's un-disputable.
And just saw articles that CT is getting a 20% electricity increase for 2014....how nice.
