The government was offering them up here in Canada as well. Paying for the installation yourself and relying on the government to make sure they keep paying you the ridiculous amount they promised for they hydro generated for 20 years seemed a bit sketchy, so I just leased the necessary space on my land to someone else who is responsible for paying for the panel and dealing with collecting the hydro money.

I don't get to use any of the hydro generated, but they just send me a cheque for $500 every 4 months for 20 years. Seemed like a no brainer since I had a huge empty hayfield to stick the panel in. I don't think I would want them installed on my roof though. What if you need to repair your roof?
