What is the cost to convert a home to solar power?

The Cost of Solar Power

The initial cost of solar power varies widely. It depends on how much electricity you use, how much Sun your home gets, and rebates in your area. Generally a typical home solar power system is about $30,000 after state and federal incentives. The system will pay for itself in about 10 years and last for 25-30 years. A solar power system connects to the electric meter so a homeowner uses electricity the same as they always have.
