Do you have a blog or a writeup about this? What would have been the cost if it was not DIY'd? Is this doable only in a rural/semi-urban settings?

- hex4def6 5mo agoI was in the same boat. I'm in the bay area, did a roof mount system. ~9.5kW with Enphase microinverters. I think it cost be ~15k all in. The usual installer price is normally around $2.5-$3/w (so about $25k - $30k). I got someone to do the plans (because I was under the gun to get on NEM2), but that was $300 well spent. Did it all myself -- mounting, running conduit / wiring etc. Wasn't too bad. Probably about 3-4 Saturdays of work.
