That's the thing that always bothers me about utility rebates and tax credits; it must be purchased and installed by a certified company. This means you must pay 4x or more of the cost. The incentives never offset the additional cost of paying to have a solar installer do the work.

Same goes with installing high efficiency hot water heaters and the such.
