This is a Residential project I am working on. PV System just started producing energy.

June 5, High-Noon, direct sun & no clouds. Panels are producing exactly 7.00kW of power.

 
A neat install parallel with the ridge.

What type of panels are they and what is each panels rating? :?:
 
Have any links to the stuff you bought?
 
What? You're getting 100% of the nominal panel rating?? My little 0.72 kW system usually only sees .53 kW (about 73.6% of panel rating) :cry: on a clear day and you're a few degrees of latitude North of me. I have noticed that we've been having a lot of smog around here in the SF Bay Area though. :cry: :cry: :cry:
 
Prices?

Homeowner contracted it direct with the installer, so I cannot say. I believe the pay-off was less than 12 years, though, with the incentives our State provides.

The system is estimate to produce over 8500 kWh of energy per year.

Since it went online last week, it has produced a total of 275 kWh or about 55 kWh per day. - That's with mostly sunny or partly cloudy weather the last week, and Long June days at Latitude 47N
