Does it make sense to install a solar electric system if we are moving in a couple of years?
Yes. The value of your home is increased between $20 and $24 for every $1 reduction in annual operating costs resulting from installed energy efficiency measures or energy generation systems, according to the Fine Homebuilding Magazine, June/July 2003 Issue, Page 76. When you sell your home you will very likely get your full initial investment back, plus you will have the benefit of a greatly reduced or zero electricity bill for a couple of years.
