1st full quarter bill was $50, down from $700, next bill due any day.

If electricity prices keep going up I expect to have the system paid for within six years.

In your calculations you need to also add the following cost to your electricity bill which is a "hidden cost" in solar systems
-the interest you could be saving on your mortgage
-the fact that your system will depreciate
-an inverter might fail etc. as they don't have that long a warranty. $$$$$
