Solar-power system prices have fallen drastically over the last several years, down from $8 a watt in 2008 to today’s $4.43 per watt for a $27,000 six-kilowatt single-family home system.

The choice hinges on typical factors like a home’s location, size, and state utility rates. ISLR’s solar calculator is a helpful tool for making the decision.
