This might be only tangentially related, but every time someone darkens my doorstep selling solar, they fail to explain to me how I'm even going to break even with solar. I'm sure some of that might be Oncor, but I'm not interested in covering my roof with ugly panels AND paying more money in the long run.
- fmorel 4y agoI look at it the other way - I like having the panels on my roof. When I later add battery storage, I'll be able to keep the lights on during power outages. And maybe my purchasing them helps finance the industry a little bit so further improvements can be made.
- nineplay 4y agoI don't rely on door-to-door salesmen to give me detailed information about my energy consumption. There are plenty of calculator online, and reputable solar companies ( who do not sell door-to-door in my experience ) will be happy to help you understand.
- ncmncm 4y agoYour door-to-door salesman is charging 4x what you could pay somebody not on the take. Home Depot, likewise.
- _ea1k 4y agoUnfortunately the people going door to door aren't likely to be competent enough to do that. If its a good company, these are just qualifying leads and passing them back to sales staff. Hopefully those are better, and that's really your best option if you want to get deep into the details.
