How much does a photovoltaic (PV) system cost?
Figuring out how much a particular PV system will cost is a complicated process, as the overall cost depends on a number of different factors: the size and type of the installation, the particular manufacturer, and your local installer. Other factors include subsidies and other government incentives, which can significantly lower the overall price tag. Before such subsidies, for example, a typical residential PV system of 3.5 kilowatts would cost about $35,000 all told. After, however, that price could be $10,000 (or more) lower. Again, this all depends on where you live. The good news is that GetSolar can get you several competitive quotes from our qualified solar panel installers.
