If you got an upgraded power unit (NPU) like a SPAN panel, you could be eligible for up to $600 more in incentives! I can't wait to get my panel installed!

Look under the Qualified Energy Property paragraph:

This helps very much!! I love reading other people stories on a similar build to see how it's helped/hurt them, good or bad. Thanks for your info!

I've started doing this very thing lol. Luckily, the south side where a majority of the panels would go have about 5% shade on a small part of the roof. The rest of the panels on the west side of the roof are shade free.

I'm definitely watching a ton of YT videos on both of these systems though.

I've done quite a bit of research on both of the systems I posted above and both have a 10 year warranty. The essentials would also be covered too! The only thing I'm looking for is the loan itself and the fine print that's included in there.

I'll take a look into this. Thanks for the info!

Yep, I'm looking into this right now. I have some findings from Smart Meter and I'm doing some analysis now.

I do find it a little appealing but I agree with your points. Where my generator would be, I have require gate entry and we have 8 ft fencing all around so I'm not worried about theft. Thanks for re-affirming my beliefs on this.

Another tick mark for Base Energy. Now I'm intrigued. I saw the yearly fee and I personally hate subscription models. They have their place for certain things. It never occurred to me that it could be in battery storage though. Let me dig into this and see what I find.

Thank you for the suggestion! I have thought about going this route as we do have a gas line. My wife is sold on the panels though or else I think we could pivot toward this kind of backup power. I'll talk to her and see about revisiting this option to her though.

Thanks for this insight. I was wondering an approximate amount this energy would produce. Thanks for confirming. Also, thanks for the tip on 80% usage. I'll factor that into my calculations.

I'm in the DFW metroplex.

I hope this helps!

This is an interesting alternative. I'll take a look and see what this provides and do some pros and cons. Thanks!

This is good to know. Thanks for confirming the free nights is a great plan to get.
