One Response to What is the price of a solar shingle?

One shingle will produce an average of 15 watts of power.

The average price is about $ 10-$ 12/watt.

ie: a shingle costs $ 100-$ 150.00 ea.

Average price to convert an 2000sq.ft. home to solar power is in excess of $ 50,000.00

average lifespan/warranty on solar shingles is 20-25 years

They will never pay for themselves at this rate. Other types of solar panels however can be cost effective.
