I had thought about installing solar panels, but I'll likely be moving in the next 2 years. I'll still keep the home, but I doubt renters would want to pay extra just because their utility bill is lower. Electric rates are very low here at $0.08 per kWh, and my roof isn't facing directly south.

My plan is to build our next house, and that will be the one to get solar or wind. Probably 5 years out on that.

I'll check with the ReStore places to see if a deal can be had on asphalt shingles. Failing that, maybe I can get a 20% off movers coupon to work. The post office used to supply the coupons.
