Why go Solar?
1. Protect Yourself from Escalating Energy Costs
Electricity gets more expensive every year. Over the last 35 years, the average annual rate increase has been 6.5% (high energy users have seen substantially greater increases). When you install a solar energy system you won't have to worry about escalating energy costs.
2. Environmental Benefits
A home that uses 1000kw a month produces 18,000 pounds of CO2 a year.....that's equal to driving your car or truck 19,946 miles. It would take 45 newly planted trees to offset this amount of CO2. Installing solar is equivalent to planting 1,125 trees, and produces zero CO2 emissions while in use.
3. Add Value to Your Home
In Texas, the value of a solar system is added to the appraised value of your property and does not increase your property taxes. Solar is one of the few home improvements that can be justified in terms of return on invested dollar.
4. Unlimited Power From the Sun
Solar is a true renewable, and sustainable source of energy. Since it is produced at the point of consumption it eliminates the wasted energy that transmitting over the grid produces. Solar can also greatly reduce our dependency on foreign oil, and the use of fossil fuels.
5. Rebates and Tax Incentives
Local utility companies are currently offering rebates from $1.75/watt- $2.46/watt. There is also a 30% federal tax credit to assist with the purchase of your solar energy system. Low interest loans and other financing options are also available.
