4 BENEFITS OF SOLAR PANELS
COST-EFFECTIVE
Producing solar energy at your home means you will no longer be reliant on the ever-changing prices of utility companies. You will be producing the energy needed to power your home, and will no longer have to pay the high prices that utility companies set. In addition to saving on energy bills, you may also be eligible for tax credits and incentives when you choose to install solar panels at your home or business. There may be Federal, state, and local tax incentives available to you.
TAX CREDITS & REBATES
As of 2009, the $2,000 cap on the Federal Solar Tax Credit is lifted. You may be eligible get 26 percent of total system costs back (equipment and installation). This means you could save $7,500 on a solar system worth $25,000. Combine this with state and local rebates, Solar Renewable Energy Credits (SRECs), and your total costs could possibly be cut in half. Take advantage of incentives while they last.
ENERGY INDEPENDENCE
Solar power provides energy independence. Similar to the energy security boost, solar power provides the great benefit of energy independence. Again, the fuel, or rather photons from the sun, for solar panels cannot be bought or monopolized. It is free for all to use. Once you have solar panels on your roof, you have an essentially independent source of electricity that is all yours. This is important for individuals, but also for cities, counties, states, countries, and even companies.
LOWER UTILITY BILLS
The utility companies are notorious for their fluctuating and unreliable electricity prices. There is clearly an upward trend. With solar panels and simple math, we can calculate how much electricity will be generated, and most importantly, at what price, for at least the next 20 years (fixed-energy costs).

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost?
This is the top question on most people’s minds. The best answer is, while the material and installation has associated costs, the offset of a decreased or eliminated electric utility bill can make going solar very inexpensive; and in some cases it can mean no additional cost to you on a monthly basis at all! Many factors such as size of your roof, amount of energy usage, and standing or sweeping shade on your roof surface play a part in what a solar system can cost.

Do I still get a bill from my power company?
Possibly. Depending what area of East Texas you are in, you may still be assessed a monthly or annual charge from your power company for being connected to their power grid. However, the offset from the power you produce yourself may help you achieve what we refer to as “Net-zero.” This means you produce as much or more energy than you need via the solar panels; potentially eliminating your charges from your power company for electricity consumption.
Can I still get energy from my panels on a cloudy day?
Yes you may. The panels are not only powered by direct sunlight. They can also collect energy form the sun’s radiance. While the clouds may reduce the efficacy of your panels they don’t always eliminate it altogether.
What is the incentive to go solar?
In a simplified way, you’re trying to reduce the amount of electricity you rent from the electric company and begin producing your own energy via ownership of your own panels. Generally speaking, owning is always better than renting. Knowing that expenses only ever tend to increase over time, purchasing an asset such as a solar roof will likely only provide more and more of a financial benefit over time. With the added bonus of Federal Tax Incentives currently set to expire by the end of 2023; now is the best time to have solar energy installed on your home!
