FREQUENT QUESTIONS
What solar energy rebates and incentives are available?
Solar subsidies and incentives vary depending on your location. The most significant is the federal investment tax credit (ITC), which permits a 30% deduction on the cost of your solar energy system from your taxes. Some states offer additional tax credits, while certain cities and utilities provide cash refunds or other benefits.
Will I still receive an electric bill after installing a solar energy system?
Even if you have a solar energy system with battery storage and are completely off the grid, you'll still receive a bill from your utility. However, aligning your solar panel system with your consumption can significantly reduce costs or even eliminate them entirely.
What financial benefits come with installing a solar energy system?
By implementing a solar energy system on your property, you're not only cutting down on your electric bills but also shielding yourself from potential future increases in electricity costs. The extent of your savings depends on utility rates and solar incentives in your region, but opting for solar power is consistently a wise choice.
Will my roof qualify for solar panel installation?
Ideally, solar panels are installed on south-facing roofs with minimal shading and ample space. If your home doesn't meet these criteria, alternative solutions can be explored with your solar installer.
How do I determine the size of the solar energy system I need?
The size of your solar energy system depends on your monthly electricity consumption and the weather in your area. A solar provider can assist you in determining this by analyzing your monthly electricity bill.
What are the environmental benefits of solar power?
Solar power offers numerous environmental and health advantages. Transitioning to solar power reduces greenhouse gas emissions and mitigates air pollution, including harmful substances like sulfur dioxide and particulate matter, which pose health risks.
