One more thing.
Right now I'm getting 10.7 cents a Kwh because I got in a few years ago. New installs are getting what my coop pays for power, about 3 to 4 cents a Kwh. Around 2020 my contract ends and I will go to the 3 to 4 cent rate. My intertie system was a grant from the New York Power Authority so it was free. I'm already thinking about what I'll do with my power in 2020 because then I own it completely.
Maybe set up an EV charging station, heck I'll distill water and sell it, power is power, I'll find a use for it.

Also in five years I expect EV's to be pushing out ICE cars pretty much, I won't be paying for gas, that's for sure!
