Fortunately we don't have those mandates around here. There are impact fees for new construction that covers things like roads, water, sewage, ETC, but power is generally privately owned though heavly regulated. I don't think $14,400 would get you too far considering installation and electrical storage which is costly. Having the "horsepower" to run AC around the clock can be a huge order. New construction here has to have high insulation. I can't imagine the battery packs required to run my AC nearly 24/7 4 or 5 days in a row. You also have to have movable panels to take advantage of all daylight hours which adds a lot to the cost. An important fact is that if it was profitable, you would see it everywhere. I know of no installations in my area except for government facilities where cost is not an issue. Of course pool and hot water heater solar are common.
