Solar power is the cleanest and most abundant energy source available - and every home and business owner has the ability to choose to generate power to meet part or all of their electricity needs.
-
By owning your own power generating system, you can insulate yourself from ever increasing electricity rates.
-
Solar is an excellent inflation protected investment. The pre-tax IRR is far better and far safer than the stocks and bonds market.
-
As the retail cost of power increases, so does the value of the power that you generate. Once a solar installation has paid for its cost in savings from utility charges offset by the power produced, the value of the system rises dramatically as the power generated is then free of cost to the owner for up to 30 years.
-
Residential users can offset up to 2/3 of the installed cost through Federal income tax credits and utility rebates.
-
Commercial users can take advantage of additional tax savings, rebates and accelerated depreciation as well as franchise tax deductions and property tax exemption. Renewable Energy Grants are available for all commercial solar installations in lieu of taking the Income Tax Credit. Grant applicants can receive 30% of the cost of their system in as little as 60 days from completion of the installation. Attractive leasing options and Power Purchase Agreements are available to commercial users, as well.
Fossil fuel power generation will continue to become more expensive and more hazardous to our environment and to our lives. The use of solar to generate power can and will be a major factor in reducing the greenhouse gases that have been shown to be a major contributor to climate change. Solar is a wise investment in not only our future but the futures of our children and generations to come.
