No guarantees

Savings, incentives, and performance must be verified.

Solar savings, battery value, outage performance, system payback, tax credits, rebates, grants, export values, and utility rates can vary widely. Any numbers discussed on this site are general examples unless specifically prepared for a customer in a formal proposal.

1

Savings Vary

Actual savings depend on electric bills, rate schedules, usage patterns, system size, roof conditions, battery operation, utility rules, and future loads.

2

Incentives Change

Tax credits, rebates, grants, utility programs, and state or local incentives may change, expire, or have eligibility limits.

3

Performance Varies

Solar production and battery performance depend on equipment, installation, weather, shading, maintenance, operating settings, and site conditions.

Electric bills and utility rules

The bill has to be reviewed before claims are made.

Electric bills, time-of-use rates, export compensation, demand charges, fixed charges, interconnection rules, utility programs, and tariff structures can be complicated and subject to change.

Any discussion of expensive utility territory, high rates, battery timing, or bill reduction should be treated as general information until the actual customer bill and applicable utility rules are reviewed.

  • Provide actual bills for a proper review.
  • Confirm the current rate schedule.
  • Confirm export and interconnection rules.
  • Confirm current incentive eligibility.
  • Confirm whether batteries are appropriate for the customer’s loads.

Solar and battery safety

Electrical work must be handled properly.

Solar panels, inverters, batteries, electrical panels, disconnects, wiring, backup circuits, transfer equipment, and monitoring systems involve real electrical work.

Installation and service should be performed by properly qualified and licensed professionals in accordance with applicable codes, permits, inspections, manufacturer requirements, utility requirements, and safety standards.

  • Do not attempt unqualified electrical work.
  • Do not modify solar or battery systems without proper review.
  • Follow code, permitting, and inspection requirements.
  • Follow manufacturer installation and operating instructions.
  • Use licensed professionals for real solar and battery projects.
