(BPT) - As people have been
spending more time at home and
watching their utility bills increase,
solar energy is becoming a topic
of interest. In fact, even with more
constrained purchasing practices
in many households in the current
environment, a recent Harris Poll
research study revealed a 13 percent
increase in consumer interest in solar
energy since mid-March.
That’s not surprising, given that the
installation of solar panels can save
homeowners hundreds of dollars in
monthly utility bills, boost the value
of their homes and provide peace of
mind about helping the environment.
Thankfully, making solar energy part
of your daily life has never been easier.
If you are among the millions of
American homeowners considering
making the logical step to solar energy,
here are some facts from renewable
energy experts.
Your solar energy system gathers the most
energy from full sun, but it can still work at
10 to 25 percent capacity on overcast days.
What about snowy days? Your system will
still gather some energy even if it’s partially
covered, and high-quality solar panels are
designed both to withstand significant amounts
of accumulated snow and to help melt it away.
There are new tools to walk you through
the technology and financing you would
need to get started with a solar installation or
conversion. One such personal solar advisor
is called “Solar Concierge.” This program
from LG Solar takes a consultative approach,
without high-pressure sales tactics, helping
you determine whether solar meets your
objectives and sets you up with an installer
if you’re interested.
By offsetting what you pay for electricity,
solar panels can pay for themselves. The
payoff date depends on the size and cost of
your system, the amount of energy you use
and the rebates and incentives you employ.
Generally, for the first eight years or so, your
annual investment in solar power will likely
equal the amount you would otherwise pay
to power your home in other ways. After that
time, your solar power will essentially be free
and should continue to work efficiently for
many more years.
Because solar panels can vary so much,
you’ll want to conduct research before
finalizing your purchase. Check
reputable buyer’s guides and seek
a company that has a long history
of high-quality design innovation,
testing and manufacturing, looking
for evidence of both cutting-edge
solar technologies and global
sustainability. Find a brand you can
trust with a 25-year warranty. When
choosing products, note that some
of today’s high-efficiency panels
generate nearly 20 percent more
energy than conventional panels
of the same size. With higherefficiency
panels, you may even
have surplus green energy to sell
back to your local utility provider.
Solar systems can be designed
to work with most roofs
These days, a number of
options are available for securely
connecting your panels regardless
of the limited space your roof might
have or what it’s made of. A solar
installer can assess your roof’s maximum
weight load and your city’s building code
before designing a solar system that works
for your home. Homeowners can choose
from a range of designs, including sleek
and premium panels that deliver a modern
aesthetic. To find more information about
the solar system that’s ideal for your home,
