Last week we had 6 Sharp Solar Panels (1050W) and a grid inverter installed at our place. It should supply about 35% of the power we use. The system will cost about $3500 after we get the government's $8000 rebate and $500 in RECs. This will save us about $350 a year on our power bill. We see it as a 10% return on our money, which is better than the 6% we get from an online account and it reduces our CO2 output too.
