> you're looking at an ROI of nearly five years. Fine if you can float that kind of cash to feel better about yourself,

Huh? 5 years to ROI, _after which you get free energy for the next 20 years_, seems like a pretty good investment.

> Of course if you have the time to amortize it you'll come out ahead, but there's simply no cheap solution that can actually save real money out of pocket in any reasonable amount of time beyond theoretical future savings on paper.

I, ah, disagree that five years is not a reasonable amount of time.
