I realize that the return on the investment is a joke, but I'm more wondering if anyone who is living with others (cough home with parents) who have solar panels or Combined heat and power fuel cells see in terms of power bills.

I realize the economics:  10 KW of solar panels is going to run you many tens of thousands of dollars, even including tax incentives and NOT including maintenance and degredation.  This is not a question of whether or not its economical to build a farm with some methane powered fuel cells, parabolic stirling engine solar generators, and photovoltaics covering every square inch of the property.  I'm just curious

I'm sure there are some people out there with sizable enough solar panels to see a noticable drop in their bills.


Also I would be lying if I said I was not trying to get out of noob status
