[RE-wrenches] Ballpark Cost/Watt

[August Goers]

Hi Wrenches -



Most of you already know this, but California solar data, including
installed costs, is public information found here:



http://www.californiasolarstatistics.org/current_data_files/



Searching for data on other ~ 1MW systems will help you hone in on at least
a ballpark figure but there are many variables - labor wage rates,
electrical service provisions, other job difficulties, ownership/loan
structure, etc . And looking at reputable companies helps too.



You don't want to get your price wrong when 1 MW is at stake! I've seen
installers go out of business on much smaller systems...



Good luck! -August

Hello Wrenches,

My employer has the inside track on a 1MW install on .5/12 standing seam
metal roofs (two separate roofs).  This is by far larger than anything we've
designed so I am looking for a ballpark cost/watt. I'm at around $4/watt. I
realize there are lots of variables and I am looking for help on this but
just wondering if I am in the ballpark?

Thank you.
