At $0.15/kWh electricity rates, 1m² panels can generate $30-$50 annual savings. Payback periods typically range 4-8 years, with 25+ years of subsequent free energy.

The solar panel degradation rate is the annual percentage drop in energy output. Most panels today degrade at around 0.3%–0.8% per year, meaning after 25 years, you can expect about 80–90% of
