		<description>Hey John,  Thanks for the question.  The retail cost for a solar &quot;kit&quot; is around  $4.00 per watt. In the Sacramento area PG&amp;E is currently offering a $1.10 per watt incentive. On top of that the feds are offering a 30% tax credit. After all credits and incentives, your net cost is about $2.00 per watt. At that price most folk can see a return of investment in as little as 4 years. and free electricty there after ( 20 to 25 yrs).</description>

		<description>Hi Dan,
 
I&#039;m trying to get a sense of how expensive it is to install a solar power system at our house.  My understanding is that solar is still somewhat expensive until you factor in government incentives.  We live near Sacramento in California.  I understand there are federal and state incentives out there that help reduce the cost of the project.  What exactly are those federal and state incentives as of January 2010?  And do we know how long they are going to last?</description>
