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 *From:* re-wrenches-boun...@lists.re-wrenches.org [mailto: re-wrenches-boun...@lists.re-wrenches.org] *On Behalf Of *wire...@gmail.com *Sent:* Friday, June 10, 2011 12:59 PM *To:* re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org *Subject:* [RE-wrenches] Ballpark Cost/Watt 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.
