Are solar panels worth the money?

In the long term installing solar panels is worth the money. For example, a household of 2 adults and 3 children, before they got solar panels their monthly bill was $200 (AUD). But after they got solar panels their monthly bill was $45 (AUD). That was a saving of $155 (AUD). The solar power altogether was $1800 (AUD) so in a year the savings in the power bills would equal $1860 (AUD). Thats $60 (AUD) over what the cost of the solar power. In my opinion, solar power is worth the money.
