A solar energy system provides much more than electricity to its owner—it also provides energy independence, a dramatic reduction in carbon footprint and a potential tax-free appreciation of property value. Solar for homes and businesses is now more affordable and practical than ever before. Solar tax credits, zero-down financing and robust equipment warranties make going solar not only a lucrative financial investment, but also a safe one. Our solar energy systems are built to last for 25+ years and often start saving customers money from day one. The moment we power your system on will mark the end of your retail energy provider’s ability to control how much you pay for electricity, as you will be producing your own electricity right at home. All the while, you’ll be able to monitor your solar energy production with an easy-to-use monitoring system that is included with installation.

Why Solar: What is the Return on Investment on Solar?

Solar energy is a smart investment.

The federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC) allows homeowners who install solar energy systems this year to deduct 26 percent of their total cost of installation from their 2020 federal income tax liability when filing next year. The ITC applies to both residential and commercial solar and there is no cap to its value.

Net metering allows homeowners who produce electricity with solar to receive credit from their retail electric provider for all the power the solar panels produce. This gives customers the ability to reduce their monthly energy bills to $0 in many cases.

Protect yourself from rising energy costs. Home and business owners without solar energy systems are subject to the exorbitant inflation rate of retail electricity that results from our highly volatile energy market. Producing your own clean energy can save you many thousands of dollars over the life of your solar energy system by simply fulfilling your electrical needs at a low, fixed rate.

Reduction in Carbon Emissions The decision to end your reliance on dirty power from the electric grid by utilizing the most abundant source of natural energy in our sector of the Milky Way is a decision to protect the fragile balance within Earth’s atmosphere—the one that supports and sustains all life as we know it—from unnecessary pollution.
