I spoke with one of those companies. They wanted 80 grand for a small system. They also said the rebates were almost guaranteed.

My neighbor had 24 solar panels put on his roof.
His initial cost was 20k, after rebates etc, his outlay was about 9k.
It will run the essentials; his house is about 3000 sq ft with gas heat, water heater n stove.

80 grand for a small system is outrageous. They're scalping for about 80% beyond real market costs, and that's not including what they get from various levels of government. Over 40 years ago, a relatively few people decided that most technical work would be done in a certain few communist slave countries, and that services would be relegated to western countries to enslave people here.
Meanwhile, they've regulated against technical trades being done here in order to cement the monopolies.
