Their solar installation costs are obviously falling rapidly, as would be expected since they’re following in the footsteps of Germany and other nations.

Lets see, $.39 per kW = $390 per megawatt, times 400 megawatts, times 5 hours a day, times 350 days a year = about $270 million a year in revenue. This system pays for it self in less then 6 years at current feed in tariff rates (which are sure to drop again).

A great investment!
