The estimated cost to install solar at your house is $20,951. We calculated this because we think your electricity usage for the year is about 8880 kWh, and a 6.25 kW size solar system on your roof would replace 100% of your usage. We are using an estimated cost of $4.14/W, which we get from Tracking The Sun.
The current electricity costs for Long Island Power Authority are 25¢/kWh. So, by replacing 100% of your usage, you’ll save $2,239 throughout the year. If the costs of electricity stay the same, then your savings will pay for your solar system in 9.36 years. If the costs of Long Island Power Authority electricity rise 3%, then your savings will pay for your solar system in 9.09 years.
Solar installed at your house would generate different amounts of electricity during different months. We estimate that your production would vary from a high of 890 kWh in July, to a low of 540 kWh in December. For the entire year, we estimate that your 6.25 kW sized system would produce 8880 kWh.
You may be eligible for a state tax credit of $5,000, from the state of New York.
