It’s unfortunately roughly double the cost of a regular roof (and 3x as much if your current roof is already due for replacement).
- toomuchtodo 5y agoIn Australia, the cost for rooftop solar is about $1/watt. In the US, we're still higher from soft costs such as permitting, utility review and approval, and similar, putting the cost closer to $2-$3/watt (pre 26% federal tax credit). The NREL recently released an app that automates the permitting process [1], but there are still places to squeeze the fat out to drive the cost down. Tesla's solar tiles are interesting, but cost prohibitive for anyone but the wealthy.
