Assuming a 25-year service life on the PV: 71 x 12 x 25 = $21300.
A battery bank of 8 x L16HC is roughly $3000 at today's prices; further assuming an 8-year replacement cycle, that leaves $12300 for the actual PV panels, charge controller, wiring, inverter, etc.
Now remember that's just the "grid tie fee" without any actual usage.
