Next week Wednesday my solar system goes in. Hopefully I have enough panels installed that my net bill will be close to zero if not a slight monthly credit.

System Size: 2.880 kW
PV Panels: Qty. 12 - Canadian Solar CSP-240P 240W Polycrystalline Module
Inverters: Qty. 12 - Enphase M215-60-2LL-S22 215W, 240VAC Inverter

Can you share costs at all? :)

Pre-tax credits and rebates it's $3.79 a watt. Post tax credit and rebates it's $2.52. Get a 20 cent break once you reach 4.08kW. So it drops it to $3.59 and $2.32 respectively.

How many years estimate that you would break even?

Around six years give or take a year depending on usage.
