Has the roi for solar batteries improved in the last few years?

When I watched the 2020 Arizona corporation commission debate a candidate kept shouting solar.

"It doesn't work at night!"
"Use batteries!"

I kept reading that solar panels last 30 years, but pay for themselves in 8.

However, batteries never broke even before they failed.

I watched the new debate with old arguments.

One side kept saying that solar energy is the cheapest energy and the other side kept saying "When you include solar it costs 5 times as much!"

I couldn't find any information for solar battery ROI, so I humbly come before you fine... individuals...
