Anyone using solar panels for their house?

[Scythanith]

A friend of ours is co-owner of Solar Outpost in Saskatoon. They do wind, solar and thermal projects. When we built out new house I debated putting a system on the house and garage and he said I shouldn't. Unless we were living in the place for 20 years it would never pay for itself.

And unless I am not mistaken, SaskPower will allow you to feed back into the grid through the smart meter and reimburse you up until your bill is $0. But they will not pay you for any extra power. Silly.
