Totally agree, it makes sense in many parts of the country because of a combination of incumbent electricity costs as well as high number of sunny days.

Just a few miles away in Santa Clara it would make no sense at all, since they have their own utility where power costs just 10c kWh.

There is something nice knowing your electricity costs are relatively fixed for 20 years though, since the price tends to follow the rate of inflation and the loan is fixed.
