More and more the public is bombarded with power bills on the rise in some states have seen 50% increases! so more than ever its time to look to solar power, this is real and we all need to get on board. And with messages about global warming and the devastating affects that it is having on our planet. It is pretty obvious, even to the doubters, that our climate is undergoing some sort of radical change with weather, ocean, animal, and crops. It is disturbing at best, and clear that we, the global human race, must help be a part of the solution rather than part of the problem. Going green is politically correct. and its going to save you money and the earth. It's a win win situation.



But even more timely is going green to survive financially. Escalating gasoline prices have forces many to turn to public transportation, often less convenient. However, with the increased ridership, improvements are evident. In this way, increased demand has created advances in alternative resources. Gasoline is saved, emissions are decreased, an industry is improved, and jobs result. In a similar way, the need to conserve electrical energy has caused resurgences in alternative forms of power generation. The most exciting of these is solar energy.

Residential and non residential solar systems have benefits to home and commercial property owners. Apart from knowing they are doing something good for the environment, property owners are saving a great deal of money on energy costs, and benefiting from tax incentives by installing an affordable, clean, alternative energy source. You can actually spin your power meter backwards and sell back energy to power companies.

Solar panel, photovoltaic cells, on the roof tops, are the most common types of solar energy generating systems. You will have to do some research to fine the one that best fits your structural and internal energy needs. You can save money by purchasing a renewable power source kit and doing the installation.

One exciting system is the grid tied solar system. With no moving parts, no regular service requirements, and absolute quiet, it operates on a plug and play system with only two wires; you just plug one panel to the next to expand your system. This leaves plenty of room for expansion as needs invariably change; a significant advantage for a business application. The modular design facilitates up to 16 solar panels in one string that mount together, and comes with a 25 year warranty. Installation is a snap with 2 wire hook-up and installs in less than an hour. You can generate electrical power using a green energy source, the sun, and produce cheap solar power, and help reduce your carbon footprint on the planet while you lower your monthly utility bill or eliminate it all together. If you spin the meter back far enough you could see checks from your power company too.
