If it was at all true there'd be companies out there offering to build you rooftop solar in exchange for x years of the generation value.

That that industry doesn't exist is pretty much proof that the numbers aren't what they think they are.

That industry exists, it is called Purchase Power Agreements. The value of x is usually 20 or 25. It is typically lucrative for the company, not so much the homeowner.
