Is $20,000 to install a 6.6 kw solar panel system (lower estimate) a fair price?
Project Details
I am a new homeowner in Queens (Astoria) renovating a 1920s house with a flat, south-west facing roof that is approximately 5 years old. I am concerned about rising ConEd electric rates and the potential expiration of federal tax incentives. I am looking at a 6.6 kW system with 1:1 net metering.
