Is that a fair comparison when you can get your capital back from a bank but
you will not sell the panels+inverter back for the original installed price

Yes that is a factor but the buying power of the capital investment
after 25 years will be much reduced. Possibly around 30-40% with typical
inflation rates of a few percent per annum.
