Design & Pricing
One of the most frequently asked questions we receive is, “What will solar cost me?” Determining the cost of solar power for homeowners is a complex process that requires careful consideration. To begin, we collaborate closely with you to assess your specific needs. Our calculations take into account various factors, including the utility’s sizing regulations based on your home’s annual kWh (Kilowatt hours) usage, monthly kWh usage, or square footage based calculations when the home is a new build or an existing property with new owners. Additionally, we thoroughly analyze the orientation of your roof planes (South, East, or West) to determine the maximum number of panels that can be installed while considering factors like shading, fire code, roof obstructions, and more.
Furthermore, local authorities responsible for permit approvals have their own specific regulations, further complicating matters. All these factors directly influence the system’s size, which in turn determines the specific system requirements to meet your needs. Using this information, our design engineers create a meticulously tailored proposal that addresses your home’s unique characteristics. This proposal also takes into account other crucial aspects, such as the extent of electrical work necessary to seamlessly integrate solar power into your home, which can impact the overall cost.
When asked “What will solar cost me?”, we often respond with; “Until I can gather all the pertinent informationm, we really don’t know.” This can sometimes be frustrating to the homeowner who “just want’s a ballpark idea” and can be a disservice to themselves or if a solar consultant throughs out a figure to satisfy the homeowner asking.
We are eager to help when we can collaborate with you to determine the above specifics. It’s important to also note: The financing method you choose, be it through a loan or cash, can also influence the overall cost of your solar project and your Federal Investment Tax Credit as well.
We want to assure you that we work closely with you to find the optimal solution for your home and situation. To initiate the process and obtain accurate pricing, please provide us with the requested information and request your initial design. Our expert consultants will then be delighted to review your potential project with you in person or via screen-share.
