2009: Best year yet to install solar
Green energy, renewable energy, sustainable energy....
The buzz around these terms is louder than ever. President-elect Obama has already laid out his Energy Plan that he hopes to pass through congress next year. It seems the Federal Government is starting to step up and make true efforts in supporting alternative energy solutions.
The recently adopted 30% federal tax rebate for residential and commercial solar installations starting in 2009 has created a true surge in solar system sales. It saves the average residential homeowner $7,500 on a new solar system. It was just what consumers were waiting for to make solar within their reach.

Sell you home twice as fast with solar.
There are currently 40,000 homes with solar in the country. And according to this article that number is about to spike.
Also a recent report by Ryness revealed solar homes in California sell about twice as fast than those home without a solar solution. Anything to increase absorption in today market is sure to spark interest with anyone trying to sell a home or homes.
That is probably why the November BIA Building Industry Show in Long Beach was very out of the ordinary this year. It appears the building industry vendors are all turning Green. While walking the convention floor I saw so many green building products being offered.
One of these products is Open Energy Building Integrated Tiles. They blend into the roof-line, and have several colors to match most roofing tiles. I am excited to be able to offer this unique solution to home builders and those who are looking to re-roof.
Also, through the California Energy Commission, New Solar Home Partnership, home-builders are able to capitalize on large rebates for solar in their new communities. Which means lower costs to the builder and homeowner.
New Clients:
I would like to say thank you to two of my newest residential clients.
Dee Goetze- 2.75 kW/h system.
Patricia Sanchez- 2.2 kW/h system.
System costs are only $0.12 per kW/h over 25 years.
The cost of electricity today is $0.13 to $0.26 per kW/h.
If you have questions about adding solar to your home or building, or for any new project from low density to high density residential, commercial, and mixed-use, do not hesitate to contact me.

Solar Electric Solutions
Solar Electric Solutions
Brought to you by Aron Oct. 2008
I wanted to let everyone know what I have been doing since leaving MarketPointe Realty Advisors in August. I am extremely excited to announce I have been working with Clean Power Systems. We provide solar electric systems for residential and commercial applications.
This last couple of weeks has been a blast. I attended the International Solar Power Conference at the San Diego Convention Center. It was an eye opening experience. As I walked the floor I saw so many advancement and new solar technology on display. I even saw Arnold Schwarzenegger speak on Monday. I was lucky enough to experience a couple of his Hummer and bad movie jokes.
However, he is very stanch supporter of solar energy. He mentioned his vision of flying down to San Diego in a helicopter and seeing solar on every rooftop. He added that next time he comes to the Solar Conference he hopes it will be in his solar powered Hummer. Then finished with his often said line "I'll be back".
Besides Arnie, there were so many interesting and dynamic solar innovations like large scale thin-film by SunTech, and micro-inverter technology. Oh, I can't forget about the incredible Block Party that was sponsored by SunPower, Open Energy, and several other solar industry companies. I can't wait till next year.
Current Federal and State Solar Incentives
If you did not know the Federal Government just passed along with the Rescue Plan a couple of weeks ago. 30% tax credit for solar systems installed in 2009.
The Federal incentive along with the State of California's Solar Initiative Program will save you about $15,600 on the an average 4kw residential solar system.
Also for NEW HOMES there are additional incentives through the State of California’s New Home Solar Partnership.
