Comment on Why Balcony Solar Panels Haven’t Taken Off in the US

Honestly I’m surprised a republican is pushing for solar energy.
Also, I’m not sure how much those in the article cost, but the kind you bolt down to a roof can easily cost you into the thousands, so it takes a while for them to pay for themselves, which isn’t something everybody’s going to be okay with.

The article mentions around 800W of solar being typical, so around $250-350 for the panels plus some mounting hardware and a micro inverter. Maybe $1000 total?
