Carlsbad Solar Installation
Carlsbad is a unique costal city located just over 30 miles north of Downtown San Diego. It has a long history and a tight knit community or residents, schools, and businesses. Called by many one of the best cities in the state to raise a family, Carlsbad sits between an eastern mountain range, two lagoons and the Pacific Ocean. It is famous for its leisurely atmosphere, beautiful flower fields and upscale shopping centers all within easy reach of the surf.
But Carlsbad is not just a city of waves and sandy beaches. Despite its relaxed, small town feel, Carlsbad is one of the foremost centers of industry in Southern California. Some of the City’s biggest enterprises include high technology, multimedia businesses and biomedical research, electronics and equipment manufacturers, industrial parks and real estate and land developers. All of these industries make Carlsbad a dynamic business hub as well as a community oriented town.
Solar energy is a relatively new industry in San Diego, but it is growing steadily and adding to Carlsbad’s already robust industrial district. Ten years ago, the California Solar Initiative was set in place to promote the use of solar energy systems among California consumers and businesses. In 2007, the Initiative was given over $2 billion to fund the next ten years of incentive programs.
The California Solar Initiative currently pays $1.90 per AC watt toward the price of a residential solar energy system. Add to that a 30 percent Federal Tax Credit, and you have a significant portion of the total cost of installing a solar power system covered. In addition, SunPath Solar offers flexible financing plans that make purchasing and installing a new solar energy unit more affordable than you think.
Carlsbad’s business owners who are interested in going solar can also take advantage of state and federal solar incentive programs. Businesses that install solar power units bigger than 50kW get their incentive pay over a period of five years, in what is called a Performance Based Incentive program. The rebates are based on the amount of renewable energy generated by a system over the five year period.
The performance level of a solar energy system depends in great part on its installation and maintenance. A system’s geographical location, tilt, and shading can affect its overall efficiency. The better a system’s performance is the more money owners will receive from the incentive programs. That is why choosing the right San Diego solar installation company is important.
