Grid-Tied Systems

If your primary motivation in going solar is to save lots of money on energy costs while reducing your carbon footprint, a grid-tied solar system is your most economical path to that goal! In coordination with your power company’s net metering plan, power produced from your system feeds back to the electrical grid to dramatically offset or even totally eliminate your monthly energy costs. If your energy production exceeds your monthly needs, you could even see a positive monthly balance on your power bill! Solar, whether roof, ground, pergola, or outbuilding mounted, is a great way to lower your energy costs while increasing your property’s value.

Independent Systems

If you want to protect your home and family from power outages while virtually eliminating your power bills, a solar energy system with storage is the way to go! Solar with battery back-up stores excess power your solar system produces during peak production periods during the day to provide power at night and at other times that additional energy may be needed. That means you no longer have to rely on expensive grid power nor suffer loss of power when the grid is down. Just like grid-tied systems, you can choose from roof, ground, pergola, or outbuilding mounting options to lower your energy costs and increase your property’s value.
