cost per kWh [RE-wrenches]

[Bill Brooks]

I think your number is in the right ballpark for off-grid because array
utilization tends to be low during summer months. Joel's number is accurate
for on-grid systems.

Bill.

I figured this is more conservative than most. Not to quible but I prefer to

derates
