Photovoltaics -- PV-Solar Electric

Solar Electricity / Photovoltaics (PV)
Your Personal Power Station

Generate your own power.

  • Decrease dependence on your utility company.
  • Stop rising energy costs.
  • Ensure long-term clean energy production.
  • Use your utility as a back-up.
  • 30% Federal Tax Credit!

Photovoltaics PV produces clean energy in your own personal power station.

Residential PV
You determine the best size system for your home. Solar system modularity lets you match your energy production and environmental goals with your budget. While producing clean energy you also increase the value of your property. Control your power and obtain energy security with battery storage systems. Furthermore, protect yourself against rising energy bills and take advantage of the Federal Tax Credit of $2000.

Commercial PV
Commercial projects allow companies to maximize their return on investment. Take advantage of solar tax incentives: 30% federal tax credit with no limit, and a 5 year rapid depreciation of the system. Furthermore, demonstrate your company’s environmental commitment. Be a leader in the green business movement.

About the Photovoltaic Modules

Your solar electric system can be grid connected and have battery storage as an option. Grid tied systems feed excess energy back to the utility, creating credits for later use. Battery storage options are available to provide electricity during power outages. You can achieve smart solar energy storage with a GridPoint system that provides battery storage for your solar system. You will also monitor your solar electric system from the internet and choose which circuits in your home will be supplied with solar energy during blackouts.

Your Investment
PV systems will provide many years of clean, renewable energy. Installed system costs range from $7 - $10 per watt. As the system size increases the cost per watt generally decreases. For example, an 1800 watt (1.8 kW) system that might decrease your electrical bill by 1/4 costs approximately $16,800. In comparison, a 5000 watt (5 kW) system that might eliminate your electrical bill costs approximately $37,000. Your net cost is decreased by $2000 for residential systems and 30% for commercial systems with the federal tax credit.

Beyond controlling your energy costs, solar power softens your impact on the environment. For many considering solar power, it’s not just about the bottom line; it’s also about energy independence and our future.
