Building Safety to verify Permit Fees
(The cost per watt is based upon the total wattage of the modules to be installed, industry
standards, and monetary values. These cost per watt are subject to change in accordance with
the changes in industry standards and monetary values at any given time.)
The cost per watt is based upon a Solar PV System with a single Inline Invertor, Micro Inverters,
or Optimizers. Additional Inline Inverters, Charge Controllers, Batteries, Transfer Switches,
Generator connections, and Generators etc. would/could incur an additional monetary value to be
added to the Job Value.
The Cost per Watt is based upon current market values and industry standards:
5KW $3.25/Watt
5KW - 10KW $3.00/Watt
10KW - 15KW $2.75/Watt
15KW - 20KW $2.50/Watt
20KW - 30KW $2.25/Watt
30KW - 50KW $2.00/Watt
50KW - 100KW $1.75/Watt
100KW - 500KW $1.50/Watt
500KW - 1MW $1.25/Watt
1MW - 5MW $1.00/Watt
5MW - 40MW $0.85/Watt
40MW $0.70/Watt
An example is as follows:
37-310W modules are being installed with 1-Inline Inverter or Micro Inverters for a Grid
Tied Solar PV System.
37 x 310 = 11,470 Watts (11.47 KW DC system)
11,470 x $2.75 = $31,542.50 Job Value
Permit Fees: (($60.00 Base Fee + ($10,000.00 x .02)) + (($31,542.50 - $10,000.00) x
.01)) = $475.42 Permit Fees
