Solar Installation San Diego
Solar power is a rapidly growing industry in San Diego. Schools, businesses and residents are taking advantage of State and Federal solar incentives to help reduce energy consumption as well as air and noise pollution throughout the county. In March of this year, UC San Diego, Point Loma Nazarene University and the Valley Center Water District all announced the completion and operation of brand new, large scale solar power systems.
The system at Valley Center Water District, the biggest of the three, is a 1.1 Megawatt panel layout located amidst the hills. It is estimated that it will produce an annual energy output of 2,101,876 kWh, which can offset about 1,509 metric tons of carbon dioxide or approximately 171,283 gallons of gas used.
You too can do your part to help create a cleaner, more sustainable future for San Diego. Even a small, residential solar energy system can offset the same amount of carbon emissions that would be produced by driving a car for over 7,000 miles. And in addition to contributing to the fight against global warming and environmental contamination, solar installation can help reduce your energy costs as well as add permanent, guaranteed value to your home or commercial property.
If you are looking for a solar installation provider in San Diego, SunPath Solar is there to help. We offer flexible financing plans that can make purchasing and installing a new solar energy unit more affordable than you think. In addition to the long term energy savings and the increase in home value provided by installing a solar power system, you will get a 30 percent Federal Tax Credit on your purchase.
The California Solar Initiative, which was founded over ten years ago to reward residents and businesses who made the investment of going solar, is offering new monetary incentives for people who purchase a residential or commercial solar energy system this year.
For owners of residential systems, the rebate is paid up-front and is based on their specific solar power system’s expected performance. The expected performance of a solar energy system is determined by examining the system’s equipment ratings as well as the manner of its installation. Commercial system owners or owners of systems bigger than 50kW receive their incentive pay over a period of five years, in what is called a Performance Based Incentive program.
The better a system’s performance, the more money the owners will receive from the California Solar Initiative. Things like a system’s geographic location, tilt, and shading are factors that can affect its efficiency, which is why choosing the right solar installation company is important.
A local, San Diego solar installation company like SunPath Solar can not only provide you with top quality installation services, but will also conduct regular service check-ups to make sure that your system continues to perform at its optimum. SunPath Solar guides you through the entire process of purchasing a new solar energy system, all the way from the system’s custom design to its final installation in your home or business.
