Frequently Asked Questions
What is a typical payback period?
5–8 years in sunny regions with good incentives. Up to 10–12 years in cloudier areas. 25–30 year system life = 2–5× return.
Should I buy or lease?
Buy: higher upfront, own all benefits. Lease: lower upfront, limited savings (company keeps most incentives).
What incentives are available?
US: 30% federal tax credit (through 2032). State/local vary. Net metering credits monthly power to grid.
