The shingles under the panels do not get exposed to UV (which breaks down the shingles) so no need to replace under. just feather into the existing.

When you get a solar system you form a contract with your electric supplier and you are locked into a buy back rate. (credits for unused or sold electric) just don't over build your system and use what you need. You won't make money selling the extra electric anyway.

Tesla has a 25 year bumper to bumper on the solar so it should outlive me.

Hope this helps!!
From previous threads think there is a lot more to this. When the roof needs replacement it will be entire roof and panels will need to come off and replaced.
