Solar panel manufacturers<\/h2><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

The technology for solar panels has existed since 1888 with the first patent. Solar Panels use a simple but incredible process of capturing energy from the sun and converting it into electricity. Engineers have been upgrading this technology, being widely adopted as a cleaner and cheaper version of energy across the World.<\/p>\n

Solar panels are a collection of photovoltaic cells organized into a group of cells that convert sunlight into electricity. These photovoltaic cells convert the energy from the sun into an electric current. Photovoltaic (PV) cells that convert Light into electricity.<\/p>\n

Today, there are hundreds of panels being manufactured, and the advancement of solar technology has produced many options for size, durability, reliability, and efficiency. We only use black-on-black solar panels that carry 25 years warranty and top-of-the-line manufacturers’ Quality that you can trust to last.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/span>

Black Solar Panels<\/h2><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

When we talk about solar panels these days, we are almost always referring to the black-looking monocrystalline panels made of a single high-quality silicon crystal. The silicon crystals used in black panels are purer than the silicon crystals used to make blue polycrystalline solar panels.<\/p>\n

The blue and black panels appear almost identical, but light interacts differently with the monocrystalline cells in the black panels than with polycrystalline cells in the blue panels.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/span>

More Energy Efficient<\/h2><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

These panels are more efficient because of the uniform alignment of silicon crystals within a monocrystalline panel. Black solar panels are more efficient than polycrystalline panels, which makes black panels a better choice for producing more energy with the same amount of rooftop space. Black panels are more efficient than blue panels in terms of energy efficiency. Black panels can absorb more sunlight, which means they are more likely to generate more energy. This results in increased electricity generated for your home.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Customized Design<\/h2><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

Once you decide to make the switch to solar, we need to design your system to fit your unique home.<\/p>\n

Our goal here is to create your own personal Solar System for your home that will not only meet your needs but also help you save money and gain that energy independence you\u2019ve been looking for.<\/p>\n

A residential solar energy system puts you in control of your energy independence, where currently, your Utility provider holds all the cards or a mean parent
\nthat takes your allowance rather than giving you one. Your Energy independence starts with a custom, specialized design specific to your home.<\/p>\n

When we design a solar energy system for your home, we squeeze every penny of value from those solar panels to create money for your electric bills. An effective design will be tailored to your home. We account for orientation, shading, and roof angles, and any specific requests you might have will also be considered.
\n( Panels orientation starts at South, West, East, well North just sucks. We can put them there)<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/span>

Design Challenges<\/h2><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

Location<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>
\n

The specific location of your home must be taken into consideration; every state and area has different sunlight hours that affect energy production. Your location will also give our designs an idea of how the weather and cloud coverage in your area will affect production estimates.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Shade<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>
\n

Because a solar system is optimized for direct sunlight, the shade will reduce the amount of energy your panels produce. Trees, obstructions like chimneys, and other buildings can cast some shading on your roof. (SHADE IS BAD!!!)<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Roof Angle<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>
\n

There are also home-specific details that must be considered when we create your design. Your installed solar panels must be mounted and adjusted to match the pitch of the roof as closely as possible.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

Number of Panels<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>
\n

As you know, Life changes at a moment\u2019s notice. We want to anticipate your future usage. This means your family is growing or shrinking, and the demand or lack of those energy needs in the future will all affect the final design of how many panels<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Battery Backup<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>
\n

A backup battery system can optimize the power that your system generates by first filling up your energy storage when you are producing extra power during the day before sending the rest out to the power grid.<\/p>\n

While still a little pricey, battery backup systems are amazing. They do a great job eliminating 99% of your dependence on your electrical utility.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

A Design That Is for You<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>
\n

Every home is different, and your solar design must be fully customized for you; you are unique so is your home.<\/p>\n

Most homeowners want to fully offset their reliance on grid power by installing a system that covers over 100 percent of their energy needs, but others may want to start with a smaller system and add to it over time.<\/p>\n

With our team of Engineers, high sophisticated software, and good old-fashioned experience, we will guide you through creating the most optimal energy generation system for your home.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The Benefits of a Personal Solar Energy System Design<\/h2><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

You want to get the most value out of solar energy that is possible, and this requires a design that is customized to suit your needs. What are the benefits of a customized solar energy system design?<\/p>\n

Through customization, you can avoid paying for a larger system than you need, which in turn saves you money.<\/p>\n

You can fine-tune this system to fit future needs and design the system for upgrading later.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

WHAT WE DO<\/span><\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

We are not only committed to customer satisfaction, but we also want you to fully enjoy the process of going solar and the energy output your solar system provides you for decades.<\/p>\n

Your energy consultant will carefully put together all of the necessary information to generate a design customized to your home. Then show you a detailed report including an illustration of the new design to see what your home will look like with solar installed, estimations of the energy usage and energy production.<\/p>\n

We want you to be able to make your final decision and switch to solar with the highest degree of confidence.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/span>

Understanding Your Design Quote<\/h2><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

You will receive an incredible amount of data related to solar energy, your home, and your energy needs through consultation and a customized design. Through a careful analysis of this data, you can pull several custom insights.
\nBy analyzing the cost of the system, your current, and your projected energy bills, you can more accurately determine how the residential solar energy system will impact your budget and identify the value of solar energy for your home. Your report will detail monthly energy consumption and help you make informed decisions to reduce energy consumption.
\nComparing solar energy production to your home’s energy needs, you can know almost exactly what your future energy costs will look like. (can you say retirement planning and keeping your money in your bank)<\/p>\n

For some homeowners, an energy system will yield immediate and significant savings pushing the limits to over 30%, and for others, the savings may be more modest at first. But keep in mind that energy costs, inflation, and the cost of goods across the country have been rising steadily, and this trend is projected
\nto continue forever.<\/p>\n

What amounts to modest savings today could be much larger savings in a few years. It’s time to protect your pockets, protect your future, and start saving today!!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
