In October 2003 I installed to 3.5 KWh solar system in Ladera Heights California. Excess power generated during the day is fed back to Southern California Edison and drawn back at night, avoiding the need for unrealiable batteries. My usage is "netted" over the course of a year and the system covers my entire power consumption for the year. My total power bill for the year is about $20, which covers the basic charge for connection and the minimum power charge. Because I produce more power than I generate, I pay nothing for the power actually used. My installation consist of 27 Kyocera 158 watt solar modules, 18 mounted facing south (visible in the picture above), and 9 facing west.
