Cost of Solar Panels
As of 2023, the average cost of solar panels for an average home varies based on the system size and other factors. On average, residential solar panel installation costs between $12,390 and $15,960 after claiming the 30% federal solar tax credit. This equates to less than $3.00 per watt installed on average, representing a significant reduction in cost compared to the prices from a decade ago.
Please note that these costs are estimates and may vary depending on your location, specific installation requirements, and the solar panel brand and technology chosen. Additionally, state incentives or rebates may further affect the overall cost of installing a residential solar system. It’s essential to consult with a reputable solar provider to get an accurate quote tailored to your home’s unique needs and location.
Do Solar Panels Really Save Money?
Yes, solar panels do save money and can pay for themselves over time. The savings from solar panels can be substantial, often exceeding $50,000 throughout their lifetime. Typically, solar panels can pay for themselves within four to eight years of installation. After that, they continue to generate free electricity for approximately 20 more years.
The primary reason for the significant savings with solar panels is the compounding effect of electric rate inflation. By investing in solar, you protect yourself against rising electricity costs over the years. Solar panels act as an insurance policy, providing a stable and predictable source of energy at a fixed cost.
Solar panels also offer great savings through a utility program called net metering, which is available in many states. Net metering allows you to sell any excess solar electricity your panels produce during the day back to the utility company at the same rate you would buy electricity at night. This further reduces your overall electricity costs and maximizes the benefits of your solar investment.
It’s important to be aware that not all net metering policies are the same, and some utilities may try to cut back on net metering programs. However, by installing solar now, you can lock in the benefits of net metering for at least 10 years, safeguarding your investment against future changes.
Regarding power outages, it’s essential to note that standard grid-tied solar power systems automatically go offline during a grid power outage as a safety precaution for utility workers repairing power lines. To have solar panels power your home during a blackout, you would need to pair them with battery storage in a hybrid system. Battery storage allows you to store excess solar energy generated during the day and use it during power outages or at night, providing you with uninterrupted power supply.
