Everyone has heard about solar power, but may not realize that solar power has a long record of success. Israel started developing this technology for their own use back in the 1950s because they had constant power shortages and only one resource in abundance, the sun. Twenty years later, 90% of the homes have solar water heaters. Lack of oil reserves pushed them to continue to develop solar technology. In the near future, they will be building the fifth largest solar power station in the world.
What this means to homeowners is that solar is not an unproven technology. The technology continues to improve and is being used to generate electricity every day, all over the world. The solar roof panels generate electricity daily; any extra electricity is automatically sold to the local utility and credited onto the owner’s electric bill. At night, power is drawn from the utility. At the end of the month, the debits and credits are added up. Some months the utility owes the homeowner or business, and sometimes they owe the utility. This is called net metering and results in a substantial saving on the monthly electric bill.
There are several reasons to install a solar roof. It’s much more affordable, thanks to local government rebates, grants, tax incentives and convenient financing. Solar power does not constantly get more expensive, but remains steady, unlike power from the local utility. The use of solar power reduces the homeowner’s carbon footprint and is unlimited and clean. Solar energy never pollutes. The last reason to use solar power is that it is dependable. Solar panels are guaranteed for at least 20 years and can handle severe weather, even hurricanes and hailstorms.
