From my experience, the price of installing solar on 1/4th of your roof is more expensive than installing a full, brand new roof. Beyond that, not all parts of the roof are created equal for solar - some will generated much less energy than others. E.g. a neighbor's tree blocks a fair portion of our roof from the sun.
You can already get a $0 electricity bill without having full roof solar.
I can't see it being anything but a waste of money for the practical consumer.
