A recent report by the u s.
How expensive is it to make a solar panel.
On average installation and the system together can run between 15 000 and 25 000.
Installation of panels for the average 5kw system ranges from 11 100 22 400.
Solar panels cost 1 77 to 2 20 per watt and a 6 kw solar panel installation for the average home costs from 10 626 to 13 230 after the 30 federal solar tax credit.
They don t make a big profit on them most have a 20 year warranty.
Making your own if that is what you mean would cost at least that or more.
I think they only make 5 profit.
If you have offers from some of the big installers in solar make sure you compare those bids with quotes from local installers to ensure you don t overpay for solar.
Making a solar panel yourself is a bad idea.
Government found that large installers are 2 000 to 5 000 more expensive than small solar companies.
But the true cost of solar panels and whether they ll help you save money depends on a few key factors.
Commercial solar panels are from 50 cents to a 1 a watt and last a very long time.
Solar power systems are very custom based on the home roof type shading and utility.
