Did you know
that on one single day, the sun sends 15,000 times as much
energy to the Earth as we consume worldwide on a daily basis?
A free supply that in contrast to fossil energy sources,
such as oil and natural gas is available in limitless quantities!
Solar power is the energy of the future – safe, clean
and 100 % environmentally compatible.

WHAT IS NET METERING?
In more than 35 states, customers who own PV systems can benefit from laws
and regulations that require "net" electric meter reading. The
customer is billed for the net electricity purchased from the utility over
the entire billing period - that is, the difference between the electricity
coming from the power grid and the electricity generated by the PV system.
Through net metering, the customer obtains the full retail electricity
rate - rather than the much lower wholesale rate - for kilowatt-hours of
PV produced electricity sent to the utility power grid.
WHY SOLAR ENERGY?
Adding a solar electric system in your home or business is an easy way to take
advantage of regional incentives, invest in your home or business' value,
and help protect the environment by using clean, renewable energy.
Throughout the world, the combination of the price
of electricity, available free sunshine, and incentives offered
by the local and state governments now position grid-connected
photovoltaic (PV) as an attractive investment for your new home. |
ORIENTATION-
Due south (180-200 Degrees) is the optimal orientation. installing solar panels
in the shade of a tree or building will significantly decrease solar electric
production.
INVERTERS-
Inverters are the "brains" of the solar electric system. The inverter
converts DC electricity to the AC electricity that your home uses. The inverter
monitors the utility grid and controls your solar systems production, as well
as shutting your system down during a utility black-out.
Most modern Utility-Tied (also grid-tied) inverters do not utilize
batteries, and are much more efficient than the older battery
type systems that were design for off-grid homes.
All modern grid-tied inverters are UL Listed for grid connection
(UL1741). Without the listing individual inverters are not able
to be legally connected to your house's electrical system, and
do not qualify for state rebates.
