"It does pay for itself in six or six and a half years based on current generation efficiency and revenues." "The warranty period of photovoltaic panels is 25 years, which means the plant can operate for at least 25 years. After the cost is covered, the rest of the operation period can be cost-free and profitable," said Zhao Ming, owner of a household distributed photovoltaic power station.

In October 2021, after a period of investigation, Zhao signed a contract with a local distributor of photovoltaic power generation projects and invested in the construction of a household distributed photovoltaic power station in a small village in the northwest of Shanxi Province, his hometown.

Zhao Ming's power station was built on the roof of the village's own houses and on the open space in the courtyard, covering a total area of "about 300 square meters equivalent to 8 ~ 9 rooms". The power station was 79.17kW and the total investment was 277,100 yuan.

The power station is a business, and the electricity generated is "fully online", which means that the operator sells the electricity to the local power company and makes a profit from it. According to the contract information provided by Zhao Ming, in addition to the purchase and installation of equipment, the dealer is also responsible for helping Zhao Ming handle the formalities of connecting the power station to the grid. For Zhao, a layman specializing in energy, this is a "one-stop service". "You only need to pay the construction unit price of 3.5 yuan per watt."
