Why Go Solar?

Solar energy benefits you, it benefits the environment, and it builds a sustainable future.

Renewable energy is in the news. Global warming, rising energy bills, and energy dependence affect all of us. More and more people want to become part of the solution. Solar energy is one of the best ways to make a real contribution to sustainability.

Plus there are more subsidies and rebate programs that make solar the smart choice – financially as well as environmentally. But solar is still new for a lot of people.

Here are some Frequently Asked Questions about going solar. It’s easier than you might think.

How does a solar energy system benefit me personally?
In many ways:

• Installing solar panels can reduce your energy bill, and in many areas the utility will buy back any extra electricity you generate.
• Federal, state, and utility financial incentives are also available in many areas.
• It adds to the value of your home.
• You gain energy independence.
• Perhaps most importantly, it’s a good investment in a sustainable future for yourself and your loved ones.

How much does a solar energy system cost?
This depends on a number of factors, including system capacity, home layout, and other variables. Certainly the cost has gone down dramatically in recent years, and now there are many tax breaks, electricity buy-back programs, and incentives.

How long will my system last?
If properly installed, it should last 30-40 years. Systems that were installed in the 1970’s are still fully operational today. Technology has evolved so the systems from the 1970’s may not be as efficient as today’s technology.

What regular maintenance do I need to do?
With systems that we recommend, very little. PV systems are inherently very low-maintenance, requiring the system owner only to wash the solar modules down with water when they get dirty so light can get through.
