Where we moved from in Virginia, many of my neighbors were getting solar panels on their roofs. These were the ones that fed excess power back to the electric company and wound your meter backwards (my description). I spoke with one of my neighbors who had this done. He reported that there was a $5.00 monthly charge for this service and many months that was the only charge on his electric bill. Your roof had to be relatively new for the panels to be installed. We needed our roof replaced and a friend of a friend did it for us. He said most of his business now was replacing roofs prior to solar install but he worked us in because he knew us.
