Syracuse, NY, USA. 16% of nameplate would be high. I would still like to see the actual month by month production number from the meter.
.
The misleading info commonly presented to the general public state claims of new installations being bid at $0.80/W. Which is never documented to be true of a completed project. And the media never tell us that the nameplate needs to be multiplied by 1/5 to get the actual average output.
.
The newest low pricing I see bandied about as 2.2c/kWh which is way off and not supported by data from any finished solar farms anywhere. The farm in my town is doing 16c/kWh over 30 years. With no taxes or ongoing O&M costs even added in yet. And no storage.
.
There seems to be mass hypnosis among staunch solar advocates which prevents them from accepting anything that contradicts what is published in the media.
