February 2009 Stimulus and Solar



Everyone is buzzing to see what President Obama's plan will do for the solar industry. The current Stimulus Package being pushed through Congress includes the 30% Federal Tax Credit being transformed to a rebate. However, it is anyone's guess what will survive the legislative process.



Given the uncertainty surrounding the Stimulus Package, now may be the best time to bring solar to your home. The current 30% Federal Tax Credit along with the State's rebate, which is roughly 15% to 30% of the solar system cost; are the best incentives the industry has ever seen.

Curious of what a system may cost for your home? SunPower has a helpful solar calculator you can use to help you price a residential system for you home. It will also show how much you can save using solar and provide affordable financing options.







Solar Prices and Large Projects



The price of solar modules have been coming down a bit. Solarbuzz.com tracks solar module historical pricing since 2001. You can also view inverter price increases as well. There has been downward price trend in solar panels over the last couple of months.



There are really exciting large utility scale solar projects that are currently under construction.

I will be there to show you the installed system and answer any questions you may have regarding a grid tied net metered system. It is a few houses from the beach so hopefully it will be a nice sunny day for everyone. Please let me know if you can make it.
