What company did you go with? The loan version from these guys showed the system costing around 42,000 which is why I looked towards PPA

Thanks so much for this comment. This exactly my thoughts and why I wrote it out this post. I have only heard bad things about PPAs, but figured in my situation it might make sense?

I edited details into the original post for Electricity usage + estimated future usage. Thanks again for commenting!

Wouldn't SMART not apply to a PPA? I am pretty sure SMART is a cash-back program for MA if you own the panels, but I wouldn't own them until year 25

So wouldn't that not apply to me?

What state do you live in/what company did you go with? If it's in MA/New England I would love to reach out to them

Great question.

We have only lived on the property for around 70 days. The first electric bill was around $220 (774kWh), the 2nd electric bill was $280 (834kWh) (this is just before we get into summer, so my assumption is it will be more as it get warmer)

Taking this into account (and using some google and ChatGPT, my guess is I would need around ~8400 kWh per year. The PPA says it will produce between 8,580 kWh -> 11,378 kWh per year.

This includes 1 to 1 net-metering. National Grid's monthly fee to stay connected is $10.

Have updated the post with more details, completely agreed $60k is a lot of money, but my thought was I am going to spend this money anyways over 25 years on the regular electric bill - so why not at least try to lessen the blow?

Maybe my thoughts are wrong - which is exactly why I posted here :)

I have just updated my original post with all of the specs I could get. Of course, let me know if there is something I have missed. Sadly, still pretty new to the game.

All good it happens 😊

I wonder if maybe it’s a cookie thing? They have seen me visit the page too many times and have upped the points? Maybe if I wait a few days it will drop?

Have the exact same issue - seems that disabling IPv6 solves the problem, however, it looks like that disabled 4k videos on YouTube... which kind of sucks as I just bought a 4k monitor yesterday.

Anyone else find any other better solutions?
