OF SOLAR PANELS

As of August, 2002

Estimate between 15% to 20% of cost of total materials and equipment.The bigger the system the greater the cost of installation.

Actual installation happens as follows:

1. Initial analysis estimated 1 hour (plus one way travel if more than 25 miles from Snowflake) 1 hour
   • Concrete & Pole work (cost of concrete) $130)
   • 12’ galvanized poles 6" diamater ($13.87/ft) $166 estimated 10 hours
2. Install components
   • Tracker panels (outside team)
   • Electrical Components (inside team) 2 days @ 10 hrs 20 hours
3. Follow Up
   • Tie up loose ends
   • Walk through (about one or two weeks after initial install) 4 hours 

Cost per hour $40.00 : Total number of estimated hours: 40 = Guideline approximation $1,600.00
