2.0 Megawatt Solar Array west of Slayton, MN |
I am considering installing a solar panel in my backyard. It won't be as large as the 7.5 football field array in Slayton, MN. This is a link to the Fickr slide show of the Solar array in Slayton, MN
Doing the calculations a square foot of standard efficiency solar PV yields between 10 and 13 Watts/hr in the proper location
The cost for installation in the US is roughly $5 per watt. I'm looking at about a 1kW installation with an upfront cost of about $5k. Minnesota has some tax credits available. So the final out of pocket cost would be less.
Feel free to relay your experience with a PV solar installation in the comment section below. I'd be interested in your experiences.
