I know dentists have been discussed here in the past but mostly for ones that take jersey care.
Any recommendations for a good dentist for private pay?

Just make sure to go over the ROI very very well. My experience is that it is often not as worthwhile as it may sound (not talking about either of those specifically but rather in general). One important pitfall is that most of these places calculate for energy prices rising at a certain percent each year. The opposite has happened and prices have dropped by 40% over the last 7 years. Some solar contracts have you purchasing the generation at a rising price over the contract term. This can cause you to pay more for the solar than the price of electricity (I have actually seen this). There are other potential pitfalls as well.

I used powerlutions around 5 years ago. I leased the solar rather than buying outright. The install was free including the tree trimming. I pay 7.1c per kwh fixed for all energy generated by the system. No delivery charge for the electric so it’s around half price. All in all I’m saving around $800 a year with zero hassle...

Has to do with roof configuration and SREC prices so YMMV

No one here purchased them? Supposedly they are big tax one-time benefits if you purchase?

- Solar panels can void your roof warranty

- SREC price can drop, so don't factor it in when calculating your savings (IIRC 10 years ago it was $600. Now it's ~$200)
