Good price?

I am in Texas so the grid is very spotty and expect to have rolling blackouts in the future.

Pics: 1st: solar only 2nd: solar +1 PW 3rd: solar + 2PW

We are going to buy an EV in the next 2 to 3 years so we intend to use solar for charging, possibly overnight so 1 to 2 PW would probably be necessary.

The installer is PegEnergy a local company and will be filling for permits and HOA stuff.

They recommend I go with another electricity company, Chariot Energy, since they will buy extra electricity. They would buy back extra electricity for variable rate at 11.9 cents x kw.

However, consuming from grid would be at 17 cents x kw.

We are currently with GreenMountain energy and they will only buy back what I use.

Also no extra local or state incentives besides 30% federal credit.

Our home is a new build in TX with no gas appliances and consume an avg of 1,800 Kw x month. More with EV.

We have no future neighbors in the back nor mature trees since there’s a small creek separating property, lots of sun, backyard at a negative grade towards creek, and very minimal shade.

I am attaching 3 different quotes on a 12.8kW system alone, with 1 PW, and last one with 2 PW. They do not pay for any shortfall in system but will repair it if necessary under warranty. Each quote is at 1.99 per watt.
