I’ve thought about this in the past, but it didn’t make sense to me when I was building my home in 2001 in Missouri. I just bought stock in the local electric company instead.

But now I live in SW Florida, and I have a south facing roof, also I assume prices have come down. Currently there are solar water panels to heat the pool, but I can live without them, or reduce their size.

Is it now feasible to have solar panels installed and actually pay for themselves in a reasonable amount of time. Say less than 10 years?

I currently avg $240 a month, so the budget would be say $20k-30k. On the higher end I would like some storage for time without power.

I also have a tile roof, I don’t know if that effects the install cost.

Is this doable now?
