What are THE BENEFITS of going solar?
- Lower electricity bills from Day 1: Each additional kilowatt of installed solar capacity moves your electricity bill closer and closer to $0/month.
- Passive income via solar power generation: Depending on your state and applicable incentives, it’s possible to generate positive cash flow from your solar PV installation.
- Stronger economic growth: At a time of high unemployment, solar energy remains one of the primary job-creation engines in today’s sluggish economy.
- A healthier environment with cleaner air, water, and soil: Continued reliance on fossil fuel is one of the main reasons why the climate is changing. We are adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, which increases the amount of heat trappped by the atmosphere. This is causing an increase in frequency and intensity of events like super-storms and droughts. Reducing fossil fuel use will also reduce the pollution of the air that we breathe.
Reduce your reliance on limited resources
We are learning more and more about the impacts of fossil fuels, and harmful emissions on our environment. Solar technology harnesses the energy provided by the sun; an unlimited, powerful and abundant resource.
Reduce your reliance on the grid
The cost of electricity fluctuates, and rate increases are frequent. By investing in solar energy, you can avoid increases to your energy bill for years to come.
A Solid Investment
Each individual state offers different incentive programs. In some cases, the utility company will pay you for your unutilized energy. Massachusetts offers generous financial incentives which significantly offset the cost of your solar energy system. Once installed your system is an investment that will pay dividends for years to come. Consult your tax professional to learn how federal and state tax credits apply to your specific project.

Take advantage of the financial incentives
Additionally, the federal government encourages participation by offering tax credits.

INCREASED HOME VALUE
Research has shown that for each kilowatt of energy installed, the value of your home increases upwards of $5,000. The average home adds nearly $30,000 of value when going solar.
