If it’s 15 years then…wow.

Have the costs dropped or has availability gone up in the past 9 months?

Also, is the cost of the roof shingles on the rest of the roof included in this price — do they come from Dow as a “set” or do you have to find your regular shingles from another source?

Solar: The ultimate answer! Taylor your lifestyle to the energy you get for free, renewable or perpetual depending on your belief system and where you were educated, grow a garden, even do communal sewage and manure digestion for methane gas fuel, and top-soil building fertilizers, at the same time! Look to only light manufacturing of essential goods, expect most of these to be imported from Asia, where the American Capital fled to, in the first place. Seek clean water, fertile soil, and work hard searching the net, even “Off Grid” folk can help here, for technologies to make your new lifestyle more comfortable and understand: you were so “Sold Out” by your Capitalists – no guilt for the paradigm shift is on you, Patriot!

PACE systems are another great idea. Here the money is lent by the bank, but paid from the tax rolls. That means the panels are effectively owned by the city, not the homeowner. They naturally flip to the new owner when you sell the place.
