FACT: Fossil fuels are depleted by humans 100,000 times faster than they are geologically formed.

Cut your electric bills by 75-100% ~ Add value to your home ~ Protect yourself from rising utility rates

Going Solar provides secure power, makes economic sense, and protects the environment since solar power is a clean, renewable, and sustainable energy source.

Why now? For many situations photovoltaic solar power systems are the most reliable and cost effective way to power our buildings such as homes, offices, businesses, and schools. For others it is the best economic solution to provide energy in the long-term. Installing a solar electric, solar water, or solar space heating system will immediately offset or eliminate utility bills. In the past solar power systems have paid for themselves within 12 to 14 years, but as traditional fossil fuel based energy prices rise, systems are paying for themselves much faster. Solar thermal systems pay for themselves within 3 to 5 years. That's a 15% to 30% return on the investment, which is much higher than current interest rates.

Solar power systems generate energy on-site without polluting air or water, contributing to global warming, or the need for expansive transmission or distribution lines.

In many cases rebates and tax credits can save as much as 50% of a solar power systems total cost. Financial Incentives to Go Solar include:

• Energy Policy Act of 2005 and proposed Securing America’s Energy Independence Act (H.R. 550)

• State Incentives

• Tax Credits

• Grants

• Net Metering (In many states you can sell your surplus electricity to the utility company.)

• Rebates

• Loans

Incentives such as rebates, tax credits and tax deductions vary by state and utility company. New incentives are being offered or are becoming increasingly attractive all the time. Alternative Power Enterprises will work with you to make sure you receive every possible incentive. The Database of State Incentives or Renewable Energy (dsireusa.org) is an excellent place to start learning about which incentive programs are available to you. We recommend checking with your local utility company for additional local incentives.
