I know very little about in-depth electrical work so I would definitely need professional electrician assistance, but I am looking for a sort of “how to disconnect from the power company” and go full solar? I understand that it’s becoming much less expensive to purchase and maintain, and I would like to free myself from $300/month electrical payments on my residence.

If it helps, I live in the mideast USA.

Any help is really appreciated! :)

    Also, you should consider new windows and insulation/re-insulation of your house first.

    I spent ~$6k on new windows and full encapsulation with spray foam (small house, so ymmv) and had my power bill/gas bill drop by nearly 60%.

    MUCH better ROI than the solar is ever going to be and it’s also included in the energy efficiency tax credits as long as you ensure the R values are sufficient, and you do it professionally.
