Depends on what you are getting paid for the electricity produced. Here in Ontario, government programs paid up to 88 cents per kwh under the green energy act for solar produced electricity. Many free standing 10kw panels went up, each around 100k dollars with a 20 year contract. Payback was in about7 or 8 years, with all expenses paid by the owner. So many went up that the capacity of the rural infrastructure was in danger of being overloaded. Then because of opposition the contract price was lowered to 40 odd cents, and no new contracts were awarded, also because supply exceeded demand. The panels themselves lost efficiency over the years, and some have been damaged by wind. Roof top panels were less popular because they could not track the sun resulting in lower output. They are more popular on new construction due to the engineering required to the roof structure.Study the market trends, what you are getting paid for and the lifespan of the unit. Most here are satisfied with the unit if they got the higher priced contract. None are being built anymore though. I'm sure b&d will have some good comments.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
