Bar none, solar electric has become the fastest growing application for solar energy because of recent tax credits and utility rebates. Did you know that to help offset the cost of these systems and empower the country to convert to renewable energy, utility companies along with state and federal government tax credits, will pay for about 50% of a solar electric system?
“But aren’t those batteries expensive?” Not at all! Today’s solar technology is nothing like the dinosaurs of the past. Using smart grid devices such as smart meters, your batteries are the utility company. The concept is simple, if you produce more energy than you use in a month, your utility company pays you for the excess. Now there’s a dog that’ll hunt…
Echo Energies is proud to offer Kyocera and SMA’s Sunny Boy line as their primary PV system components. The peculiar thing about solar modules is that in extremely warm weather, they tend to be less efficient. Arizona has a phenominal amount of sun hours, but it also gets quite hot. We have found that these manufacturer’s products have some of the best temperature coefficients, making them an excellent choice for your power generation center.
However, if you have a preference toward a certain component type, don’t hesitate to mention it. Echo Energies has the ability to supply virtually every type of solar component known to man.
