My estimation based on power consumption with an average cost of 14c (power rate plus variable fees) plus carbon tax rebate was between 9-10 years so almost there. Once the carbon tax goes up, I think it'll become closer to that mark.
Plus better solar panels will also improve this, I have 200w panels, I'm planning on costing out higher wattage panels next year see if I can get better return on 300 or 400 watt panels.
