Solar Myths
Myth 1: Solar is still too expensive so it’s best left in the hands of rich people and environmentalists.
Fact: Homeowners choose solar because it lowers and often eliminates their monthly electricity bill. And with the explosion of financing options, the major barriers to harvesting your own sunshine have been largely eliminated. Today many households invest little if any of their own money to go solar and, when finished, typically find extra money in their budget as a result.
Today’s financing options have truly democratized energy production. Not long ago only large utilities could afford the investment required to build an electrical power plant. This left consumers entirely at their mercy. Solar is changing this model. Today it’s possible for anyone with a decent credit score to install their own solar generator and make electricity for less than they can buy it from the power company. If you don’t have a decent credit score then don’t panic, this can be easily rectified by using a company like Novacredit, who can help build up your credit score if you want to (just click here for more information on how to go about it).
In addition, solar is one of the only home improvement projects that can actually make money! Over their useful life, solar panels return more than five times their cost in electricity savings–often repaying the initial investment within seven to ten years. With a warrantied life of 25 years and effective life of 40 to 50, solar panels will produce power and money for decades. Compare this to typical home improvements such as a kitchen remodel, where the best one can hope for is a return of 70 to 80% (www.remodeling.hw.net/cost-vs-value/2014/mountain).
The fact is the sun shines on all of us equally. We all have the same opportunity to cash in on this abundant natural resource. Of course, the factors that determine how viable solar is for any household vary from family to family. Sun Valley Solar Solutions helps people understand their options and the best way to personally profit from their share of the sun. So, rich or not, whether your panels are borrowed or owned, using solar power makes dollars and sense for everybody. What are you waiting for?
