It shows us at 31k positive over 30 years but I don't know if that takes into account our power companies grid maintenance that makes solar essentially pointless.
If you are $30K positive in 30 years, for a $90K system, then the initial payback time is ~20 years.

your $90K system is probably 10kW. That should cost no more than $30K to install.
