Frequently Asked Questions
Why install solar panels?
Installing solar panels has both financial and environmental benefits!
Financial Benefits: When you install solar panels, you save money on future electricity bills, and can protect yourself against rising electricity rates. You will begin to see a return on your investment in 6-10 years after installing your solar panels. Instead of paying a monthly electric bill, you will be able to store excess energy produced from your solar panels in a battery for later use or they can even feed into net metering as energy credits for your home.
Environmental Benefits: Solar is a renewable energy source that has many environmental and health benefits. Increased installation of solar panels results in fewer air pollutants like sulfur dioxide and particulate matter, which can cause health problems. Installing solar panels and making the shift to solar energy also reduces greenhouse gas emissions.
Can I generate electricity that the utility company will buy back?
Yes. It is fairly common to have your solar panels produce more energy than you can consume. A process known as net metering allows consumers to take the energy that they have captured with their solar panels and sell it back to utility companies, which ultimately helps to reduce your electric bill.
