Our utility offers net metering. We do not presently have it. It costs an additional $10/month. That’s another cost I hadn’t figured into the cost savings calculus.

For me I have to pay a minimum charge if $10/mo to rent my electric meter. So for me a large system + tax + min fee is ~170/mo
It’s still profitable enough to make me close to $1200 a year
The first step for us is determining daytime and nighttime electrical usage. From there we can determine if a small or medium system is best, but I suspect a small system is what we need as we average 23 kilowatts/day. The monthly savings thus far aren’t compelling for renting a small Tesla system once the costs of net metering, taxes, permits (amortised) are added.
