It won't take much for solar to beat that. Except, because of the price of electricity, I am not in a position to afford solar panels!
$5.67/day...

Doing a little back of the napkin math, you're paying $~170/month for electricity.

What would you be able to buy, in terms of solar panels, controllers, and storage batteries with a loan that has a $170/month payment?
