Why and How I Cut Ties With PG&E

I was tired of paying $700+ dollars a month for electricity so I decided to build my own solar system. One company quoted me for $90,000 to install a smaller system than I built. No way we could afford that so I starting doing research on building a DIY solar system myself. All in, including permits, mounts, panels, grading, shed, wire and everything else was about $20k. With our system vs. PG&E monthly bills, we'll have this system paid off in two to three years and have free energy from that point on. The components I used for solar: EG4 12000XP Off-Grid Inverter https://signaturesolar.com/eg4-12000xp-off-grid-inverter-48v-split-phase-24kw-pv-input-12kw-power-output/?ref=FishermansLife EG4-WallMount Indoor Battery 14.3kWh https://signaturesolar.com/eg4-wallmount-indoor-battery-48v-280ah-14-3kwh-indoor-heated-ul1973-ul9540a-10-year-warranty?ref=FishermansLife Aptos 550W Bifacial Panels (Pallet of 31) https://signaturesolar.com/17-05kw-aptos-550w-bifacial-solar-panels-black-up-to-688w-with-bifacial-gain-dna-144-bf10-550w-dg-full-pallet-31-panels-17-05kw-total/?ref=FishermansLife IntegraRack IR-45ASA Adjustable Seasonal Angle BallastRack™ Solar Module Racking System https://signaturesolar.com/integrarack-ir-45asa-adjustable-seasonal-angle-ballastrack-solar-module-racking-system-1-adjustable-leg/?ref=FishermansLife
