And this is why I haven't done solar on our roof yet. In Oklahoma, they are happy to have your excess feed back into the grid, but they won't pay you for it.

Gotta love the good ol' boy oil and gas lobbying here.

We have a relatively small home but large roof that faces directly south with no shade blocking it anywhere I'd put on panels.
