Why Renewable Energy?

A renewable energy system such as solar energy uses electric (PV) to convert a free & abundant resource (sunshine) into electricity for the home. Once in place, that system and all the electricity it will produce belong to the owner of the system. Our modules are warranted for production for 25 years, and should continue to produce electricity far beyond that.

• According to the Environmental and Energy Study Institute, the installation of a solar water heater can save enough in electricity or natural gas to pay for itself in four to eight years. In fact, solar water heating is the most cost-effective way to save money and reduce your annual carbon emissions. Solar hot water systems include storage tanks and solar collectors. TREE sells and designs both passive and active systems.
• TREE is your one-stop shop for information on solar arrays. A PV (photovoltaic) array is a collection of solar modules which collects energy from the sun and directs it to an electrical system. The electric current leaving the array is DC and, in most applications, must be converted into AC through the use of an inverter. A solar array can bring power to your home in the form of clean, renewable energy. Solar batteries can also be charged for times when more electricity is needed than the solar array can produce (such as at night).
