Is $34,400 to install a 9.2kW solar system with one 10kWh Enphase battery a fair price?
Project Details
I am trying to understand the benefits of adding a second battery, as the quoted savings don't seem to justify the extra cost. I am also curious if the equipment being offered is premium, mid-range, or low-end. My roof is south-facing and gets sunlight from late morning to sunset.
