Are you worried about rising electricity cost? Do you want to conserve electricity and save on electricity? Are you a homeowner looking for the best solar finance options? Or are you someone who wants to know the cost of going solar for an average household? We have the answers for you!
Solar is the right way to secure your family’s future through an independent, clean and sustainable energy supply. Going solar presents great advantages over traditional utility connections, including:
- Getting started only requires a credit check and no deposit
- Zero out of pocket costs
- Pay only $288 per month for electricity cost where you would pay $400 per month for electricity cost in utility bills for a house of the same size
- Increase the value of your home without increasing property tax (source: Berkley Labs)
- No inflationary adjustment to your monthly payments. While utility rates go up, no change in your rates if the dollar devalues
Electricity Cost | A decade on the rise
It would be impossible to imagine modern life without the benefits of electricity. Everything from heating and ventilation to our reliance on communication devices such as mobiles and televisions require electricity. Electricity costs in the US have steadily increased over the past 40 years. Since 2001 there has been a 9.7 percent annual increase in electricity cost. Solar presents a fixed annual increase in electricity cost of only 2.9 percent for the next 20 years.
How to save energy?| The coming of solar power
Many renewable energy sources such as wind, hydro, geothermal and solar have been explored to meet the increasing demand for energy, reduce reliance on hydrocarbons and manage electricity costs. Some of these renewable energy technologies are still immature and unlikely to provide the efficiency required for mass generation. Other sources such as geothermal and hydro are dependent on the availability of natural resources. Additionally, they require large-scale plants to be installed, meaning large investments, lengthy build times and dependencies on governments or corporations for execution.
Solar for homes provides a unique solution to save on electricity by lowering electricity cost. Tested and optimized under various climatic conditions all over the world, solar technology provides the control and ownership of solar to the homeowner. Because you know how much you are producing and consuming, you can effectively cut your electricity costs.
Solar system design | What makes a house suitable for solar?
It is extremely important that a professional audit—a service we provide free of costs—is conducted before you opt for a solar power system. There are several factors that determine how suitable your home is for solar, for example solar isolation, that is, the number of sun hours received by your geographical location.
Another factor is the amount of shading received by your roof during peak production hours. Less is better. Tall structures (buildings, other homes, trees, telephone poles, etc.) in the vicinity can restrict the amount of sunlight that reaches an installed solar panel. The shade from these structures can reduce how much you save on electricity by decreasing the effectiveness of your solar installation.
The most important factor is the available roof or ground area for the solar power system. A solar power system requires adequate space for installation.
By integrating solar technologies such as PV, BIPV and Thin Film, we can provide solutions and system designs for all types of homes. We also offer varied options in inverters and monitoring systems.
