Reply to comment by daleelsayarat-cars in Is Solar Energy for Home Really Worth it in the US: Expert Answers by daleelsayarat-cars

I apologize for my harsh criticism then.

The article appears to go over familiar territory to most solar articles, without simplifying the material in a useful manner.

I would provide examples, with different scenarios. As for the conclusion that it’s worth it, that depends again on the ROI. For many systems that the ROI is actually around 30 years, which is very poor imo.

What are you using to calculate that? For the vast majority of the United States, payback period on solar after incentives should be around 7-12 years.

If you would like to compare calculations, I'd be happy to do so, but you go first.

>the message here : “In my Master Degree i have been used to mount a solar panel for pumping system..”

is that my master project was on supplying a pumping system with x watts solar panels (were polycristaline 7 years ago), then evaluate if it worth it with and without having a solar tracker.
