How Solar guarantees Return on investment

• Savings on utility bills
Solar saves on energy costs and electric bills. One of the leading reasons to go solar is that you can either eliminate or significantly reduce your electric bill. Your savings are far greater over the period of next 10 to 25 years since electricity prices will continue to rise, your savings will continue to grow every year over the 25+ year lifespan of your solar panel system. Similarly, many consumers can now get a leveled cost of energy of $0.10 per kilowatt-hour. When you compare this to the average amount, you will pay to your utility for power over the next 25 years that is exactly the time Companies ensure warranties for solar panels, the average consumer with a $150 per month power bill can see savings in the range $60,000 - $100,000 plus over the life of a solar system. Any energy post that warranty period is an additional bonus for the lifetime. Energy demand is higher in the mornings and then early in the evening. This is the period when the price of the electricity peaks. Solar energy performs its maximum production capacity during these times. Eliminating or reducing one of your largest monthly expenses alone makes all the difference. More so, you can sell any excess electricity from your solar panels back to the grid.

• Tax Credit
Federal solar tax credit gives you a dollar-for-dollar reduction against your federal income tax. Starting in 2020, the value of the tax credit will step down to 26%, and then again to 22% in 2021. After 2021, the tax credit for residential solar ends. There are state tax programs and rebates in your area that encourage solar too, but the benefits of solar aren’t just financial.
.
• Property Value Increases
Many studies the most notable of which are from Wells Fargo and Lawrence Berkeley National Lab have shown that Solar panel system ownership increases your property resale value by 3 to 4%, while third party ownership (e.g. leasing) does not. That automatically secures your investment on solar from day one.

• Clean Energy
Solar energy produced by solar panels will help reduce the production of potentially dangerous and environmentally hazardous sources of energy. Solar energy will not only help you revert your carbon footprint but also enhance your systems to ensure you live in a carbon-free home. There are some states in the U.S. that encourage individuals to invest in other people’s roofs to create a lot more solar energy.
Solar energy is an environmentally friendly and healthy alternative for fossil fuels as it is non-polluting, clean, reliable and renewable source of energy. It does not pollute the air by releasing harmful gases like carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxide or Sulphur oxide. Above all, solar energy does not require any source of fuel to produce electricity and thus eliminates any transportation of fuel or storage of radioactive waste. Decreased environmental pollution will naturally create much healthier atmospheric conditions for current and future generations.

• Easy Install & Zero Maintenance
Unlike wind and geothermal power stations that require them to be tied with drilling machines, Installing Solar Panels does not require any wires, cords or power sources. It can be installed on the rooftops, which means no new space is needed and each home or business user can generate their own electricity. Moreover, it can be installed in a distributed fashion which means no large-scale installations are needed. With advancements in technology and an increase in production, the cost of solar panels has come down greatly.
Once installed you will enjoy the benefits for generations while injecting either none or almost any amount for its maintenance. Overtime, if your energy needs change and it would be a lot easier to upgrade on an existing system. Also, Solar works exquisitely well in remote locations where running power lines would not be cost effective.

• Solar Energy Life Span
As long as there is sun, solar energy can be deployed anywhere. Even when it is cloudy, you can still use the solar panel system. More so, contrary to general belief that solar panels life span is around 20 to 25 years that is generally confused with the warranty of quality Solar Panels. Most manufacturers offer the 25-year standard solar panel warranty, so power output should not be less than 80% of rated power after 25 years. Consequently, Solar scientists insist that the life span of a Solar Power is at least Lifetime and most times it can last up to generations. A 33W solar panel (Arco Solar 16-2000) outperformed its original factory specifications 30 years after it was manufactured and World's first modern solar panel still works after 60 years. Solar Panel technology and quality today are much more robust, durable, and effective like any other technology in the world. Scientific and research evolution has improved and upgraded everything present from its origination overtime. For that reason, modern Solar panels are surely designed to outlast and outperform any of its technological predecessors. Research available in the following link establishes it as a matter of fact.

Home Solar & Backup Battery

Roman and his team were excellent. They ensure my system was fully connected, running, and the battery pack working. Additionally, they educated me on how to read the SolaxCloud & Enphase (Enlighten) app. I recommend SolarSME.

Generac solar installed by Solar SME

I chose Solar SME because they are a reputable Generac certified solar installer. They work hard to troubleshoot any problems remotely and even send technicians to my home site. Farris from Solar SME was essential in resolving a battery module issue with our system. Farris worked tirelessly to coordinate with Generac and also a local Generac certified electrician BJ Electric to have the BMU part replaced in a timely manner.
