I want alot of information on this if anyone can give me some help on it in a user friendly way it would be appreciated!
If okorder and search for solar panels, they list companies that sell solar panels and you can compare prices there.
If buying solar panels could save a bunch of money we would all be doing it. Unfortunately it will take many years for you to save enough in electricity costs to pay for the panels. This may change in the future, but right now it is more cost effective to get you electricity from your local power company.
You will not recoup your cost in utilities savings. you will get it back in state and federal tax credits and accelerated depreciation on the system. You also have to be aware that a KV system for example is different in different climates. I just priced a system that is in Malibu,CA and it is very efficient due to sun exposure. the same system in Idaho will not create the same amount of power output. Therefore will not save the same amount on utilities. I have included a plug and play system that just came on the market. But there are other systems available.
You're unlikely to 'save a buck' much less 'make any money off of it' at the present state of the art. The panels and equipment will cost more than you'll save in the next ten years. That might change with energy prices, but not enough any time soon.
