I thought you Canuks got your "hydro" dirt-cheap. 17 cents is even more then here in NY from National Grid. Before we switched to solar - we were paying 14 cents per KWh. Now with the solar - if there was an accurate way to figure it all out - we're probably paying even more. But luckily there is NO way to really figure so I don't get depressed. All depends if an inverter, controller, battery, or back-up generator fails. Unlike grid-power -when something breaks - I do all the work and pay for all the repairs.
Got a $45,000 system that I paid $9000 for. No power bill in five years except for the $17.35 per month hook-up charge. Two more years I'll need $2000 in Canadian batteries (Rolls-Surrete). I just fixed a failed Outback inverter but it was under warranty. Free parts but I had to install myself. Time will tell. I guess the trick is - to die before something major goes bad. Then I'll be ahead -maybe. So far I've "saved" $3600 in power bills but spent $9000. In two years if I buy new batteries -- I'll have spent $11,000 and saved $4200 in power bills. Hmmm. Not sure when the savings actually start.
