Why Go Solar?
Unless you go solar, you and your power company are in a relationship. Forever.
Believe it or not, you already have solar, but you're not reaping any financial benefit from it. Dominion and Appalachian Power are changing their infrastructures to become 55% carbon neutral by 2030.
Dominion has to be 100% carbon neutral by 2045 while Appalachian has until 2050. In 2025 they have less than 5 years to meet this 55% goal but are only about 10% complete.
They are doing this by building solar and wind farms. It is estimated that Dominion needs to raise $21 Billion by 2030.
And, guess who's paying for it? Has your bill gone down? In fact, the Virginia State Corporation Commission estimates that your electric bill will increase approximately 12% year over year for the next 5 years. And that's just the beginning...
Until September (or so) of 2024 you could actually see the itemized costs of these projects on your bill. Now, they have hidden these fees and you can no longer see them on your electric bill.
Find out why going solar is the best choice for your energy needs. Learn about the benefits of solar power and how it can save you money while helping the environment.
The Benefits of Solar Power
Solar power is a clean and renewable energy source that can help reduce your electricity bills. By installing solar panels, you can generate your own electricity and reduce your reliance on the grid. This can lead to significant savings over time and also reduce your carbon footprint.
Net Metering and Cost Savings
When energy leaves the power plant it is at 100% of its capacity. Because of transmission resistance, when it reaches your home it is only at about 70%. Unfortunately, you are being charged for the 100% and paying for electricity that you never received. With net metering, you can receive credits for the excess energy your solar panels generate. In Virginia, the net metering ratio is 1:1, meaning you get a credit for each kilowatt-hour of excess energy produced. This can help offset your electricity costs and even earn you money through selling Solar Renewable Energy Credits (SRECs).
Fixed Monthly Cost of Solar
When you go solar, you can lock in a fixed monthly cost for your electricity. Our loans are currently at a fixed rate of 3.99%. This can protect you from rising utility rates (12% year over year!) and provide stability and predictability in your energy expenses. You can budget for it. With exceptional customer service and guidance from our team, we can help you make the switch to solar seamlessly and efficiently.
