Solar: Comparing Your Options In Bakersfield, Fresno, Central Coast, CA and, Surrounding Areas
Solar Power vs. Utility Power
Exercising the power of choice.
Utilizing the most abundant form of energy on earth, solar power systems are energy- and cost-efficient for many homes—but they are not the right solution for every home. As a homeowner, you deserve to know all of your options so that you can make an informed decision. We’re here to help you evaluate your choices and make the best selection for your circumstances.
Should I Go Solar?
With your utility company, you are required to pay your electric bill, you are not given a choice in power companies or the rate at which you are charged, and you don’t build equity by paying your bill. Solar power offers the option to reclaim some control of your energy costs while reducing the influence of your utility company—for many families, it’s a win-win situation. Our team of experts will help you find your win-win, whatever that looks like for you.
Solar Power Systems: Own, Loan, or Lease
It’s important to carefully consider the benefits of owning and leasing your solar system because once the installation begins, it can be difficult to change course. We’ll give you a side-by-side comparison of the solar power system options for your home and help you find the perfect fit for your situation. Take your time, do your research, and contact our team to get started on your free estimate—we’re here to help you save with solar.
