Yo do of course need a good southern exposure and are limited to about 30 amps of essential loads. Starting cost for a simple roof mounted on island system would be just over $26K gross, and around $18K net after the 30% tax credit.
Here is a link for a great short video on how the system works; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6wglt9oCEA
Which is about 3 times the price, and 1/2 the output of a 20Kw generator.
