Here they give you money for installing solar and wind energy. Why would you need a permit.. takes the piss no?

Aye... no permits here though, our state has a law about solar and you get that tax credit.

But they are $10kish for solar.

you need a permit for that? I thought it was something they'd encourage you to use. Gawd bless America!

I have a buddy who did up his whole house... now the local power company pays him monthly for the energy he produces.. there are local, state and governmental rebates for all the stuff you buy. I think the total for him was around 28 or 30k to get all done and 80% was covered with rebates.. the rest is being paid off with the money he gets monthly from the power company... over $100 a month

Ha, $10k is just scratching the surface. That wouldn't get you enough energy to get most homes entirely off the grid.

What I'm looking forward to doing is going 100% off the grid, with enough energy to also charge the Tesla S. The problem is the property we own right now is entirely covered by trees, and there's no way to feasibly do it without moving to a less covered area.

For all the people saying "solar and wind takes too long to pay off!", let me ask you this..

At what point does your current utility provider send you a notice saying, "Dear ma'am or sir, you NEVER have to pay for power again!"? How many generations of your hard earned dollar is enough for them?

If we were to total up your past and future monthly utility bills (allowing for the annual rate hikes of course!) and presenting it up front, the number would be f'ing staggering. Dont let sticker shock bog you down.

There was a recent story in my local news about the tribulations of a man trying to get a permit for a tall wind tower.. I've never heard of problems with solar permits though. Usually the wind issue is a existing zoning issue due to height.

What country do you live in where you have to get a permit to use solar power on your own home?

Is it me, or does that make no sense at all? Is it or is it not, YOUR home?

I imagine the most that would be required (besides for tall wind generation) would be a standard building permit which is under 100 bucks most places.

Does anyone know a site that lays solar & wind stuff out clearly and tells you exactly what you need? I looked into it once but everything was seperate and I didn't know how to put it together or what levels of power generation I needed.

For now I think I'm more interested in just having an outlet or two run on free energy.

Permits are just a way for the tax assessor to know what your property is worth.

$10k is the low end for installing solar. Which probably wouldn't even cover your entire bill depending on how big your house is and how much you use.

It's worth it in the end though. 1. You get crazy tax write offs. 2. You don't have an electric bill any more. 3. It pays for itself eventually.

Here in Colorado Xcel energy actually has to have X percent of their system switched to solar by a certain time (government mandate). Instead of building the units themselves they pay for residential installations - up to 60% of the bill. So let's say you get one installed on your home for $15k, electric company pays $9k of it. You owe $6k still. Come tax time, you get a $4,500 tax deduction for the installation. You now have only payed $1,500 out-of-pocket. Which, if you're saving 50-100/month on the electric bill should be payed off in no time.

Seriously, I don't know how you guys do it over in California. But it sounds like you don't know all the information. You need to look into the tax deductions and what other type of government benefits you can get.

Oh, and you should look into SolarCity. I built their newest website. They're the leading solar company in the west, best in the nation. They're going to be more expensive than the dime store joe joe's brand solar installs. But they didn't get to be the best by doing a shit job.
