Solar Energy
Solar energy is the most accepted renewable energy technology available today. It can be used to
heat water, provide indoor lighting, and most importantly create electricity.
The most explosive sector of the solar energy industry is in "grid connected" solar systems. These
systems are used in conjunction with your existing electricity supply to offset and stabilize your
utility delivered energy. They produce electricity when the sun is shining, and draw energy from
the electric grid when it is not shining.
Many states offer attractive incentives for the purchase and installation of solar systems, and
compared to wind energy technology, there is an abundant amount of information available to
determine if solar is right for you. So, please look through the information below to determine
if your location has enough solar energy, and possible incentives to make installing a solar
system a good choice for you.
