[quote=Anonymous]In this area, unless you are positioned to benefit from extremely generous DC SREC prices, solar panels are not going to generate a positive economic relative to other uses of the money, and even with such subsidies it’s economically marginal. The reasons it may make sense to do it: candidly, it’s a luxury status good that impresses the neighbors; there can be circumstances where it can improve resilience to power outages (but you need some pretty hefty investment in batteries, which makes the economics worse), and, likely the best reason, it’s a hedge against electricity price increases, which seem reasonably foreseeable in the future.
