Should I buy or lease my solar panel system?

It depends on why you are going solar. But if you want to maximize your financial returns for purchasing a solar system, then buying your system is probably the best option for you. But if you want an easy, maintenance-free way to reduce how much you spend on utility bills, then a solar lease will probably be best for you.

What are my solar financing options?

Are there any solar energy rebates or incentives?

How much will maintenance cost for my solar panel system?

Your solar panel system will require little to no maintenance for the 25 to 35 years they will generate power for. They are made of durable tempered glass, so you don't have to worry about cleaning them.

During a blackout, will my solar panels work?

If you are still on the grid, your solar panels will shut off during a blackout. This is to prevent any injuries to people such as emergency responders and utility repair workers from the solar panels sending power back to the grid. There are inverters you can purchase and connect to a battery so that you can have backup power during a blackout.

Is it possible to go off grid with solar panels?

Yes, you can go off grid with a solar system that has battery storage, although it is unnecessary for the majority of homeowners. When solar panels are installed on your property, they are typically connected to the grid. This allows you to receive energy from the grid when your solar panels are not producing sufficient power. The power that you do not end up using then gets sent back to the grid.

If I have solar panels, will I still have to pay an electric bill?

Unless your solar energy system includes battery storage and you are entirely off the grid, then you will still receive a utility bill. Fortunately, with a solar panel system that matches your energy use, you can dramatically reduce your bill to as much as $0 per month.
