Going solar with clean energy systems

Solar electric PV systems are designed to provide clean energy solutions for residential and commercial properties. These high efficiency solar panels have become more affordable with almost 50% reduction in costs during the last two years.  Renewable solar incentives are offered at both federal and state level to further cut down the costs.  As one of the most viable alternative energy sources, solar energy offers a long-term return on investment for both monetary and environmental costs. With grid-tied solar electric systems, you can even consume power at night and on rainy days. Plus, it adds value to your house!

LOCALIZED, CLEAN, RENEWABLE ENERGY GENERATION IS A GOOD SOLUTION TO MANY OF THE PROBLEMS CAUSED BY TODAYS NATIONAL ENERGY PORTFOLIO:

• Coal– The U.S. still has lots of coal, but its getting harder to get to, and its sourcing – especially in eastern states – is increasingly destructive. As it burns, pollution (like asthma-causing particulates and neurological disorder-causing mercury) is released into the air, and 200 billion gallons of water is used each day! After the “celebration,” coal waste is hauled off at the rate of nearly two rail cars per minute.
• Natural gas– Natural gas is highly promoted for its cleaner-than-coal burn and lower greenhouse gas emissions. Less is good. Zero emissions is our goal. Natural gas extraction is not without its flaws, and has been linked to contaminated drinking water.
• Hydroelectricity– Hydroelectricity is indeed a clean energy source, but the costs of damming and flooding can be high, and include destroying human and wildlife habitats.
• Nuclear power– Nuclear energy brings with it the high costs of uranium extraction and the storage of the highly-toxic spent fuel waste that lasts 200,000 – 500,000 years.
• Wind– Yes, the answer just might be blowin in the wind. But we think its shining in the sun, too. We see wind as a key part of the grid that ties in with solar, creating large regional hybrid systems that get us away from fossil fuels. Wind provides free energy whenever it blows. The energy deficit created in the manufacture of these behemoth turbines – whats called embodied energy – takes less than one year to pay back.
• Solar– There is embodied energy in solar equipment and theres the environmental cost of deploying it, but studies show that an average solar system will pay back its embodied energy in 3-4 years. And with some solar panels still producing electricity 60 years after installation, thats a pretty good environmental ROI. Rooftop solar cannot solve our energy needs alone, but we see it as a key component in an integrated, fossil-fuel free, clean energy future!
