Solar Photovoltaic systems produce electricity from sunlight. There are no moving parts and they are extremely reliable. Locally generated electricity can be used to offset consumption from the grid or even create a surplus of energy for the grid. Your solar electricity slows or reverses the spin of your electric meter!

By generating your own power you benefit both yourself and the power shortage.

Benefits to you:

  1. Protection from rising electricity rates. A long-term (25+ year) fixed rate purchase of low cost power at or below current utility rates.
  2. Reduction of utility power consumption to baseline rate levels. Guarantees that the utility power you buy will be at the least-cost rate.
  3. Adds resale value to your home. Buyers are concerned about utility costs.

Benefits to the community:

  1. Reduces the load on existing power plants, transmission and distribution lines.
  2. Reduces the need for more polluting power plants and additional infrastructure.
  3. Ensures a surplus of power for economic growth.

Benefits to the environment:

  1. Reduces pollution and prevents damage to the environment and public health.
  2. Reduces consumption of fossil fuels such as oil, coal, and natural gas

Fact: Using solar energy to supply a million homes with energy would reduce CO2 emissions by 4.3 million tons per year, the equivalent of removing 850,000 cars from the road.

Fact: If one million homes, each with a 2kW solar generator, were online, they would contribute the same amount of power as California's two huge nuclear power plants.
