Solar Panel Installation in Los Angeles & Ventura County
Did you know?
- The amount of energy in all of the oil, natural gas and coal stored in our planet combined is less than the energy produced by the sun (Solar) hitting earth's surface for 20 days.
- The Energy produced by the sun hitting the earth surface is grater than the world's human consumption in a whole year - Home Power Magazine 2008
- While government funding programs for solar panel increased in recent years, the production cost of solar panels and solar system have dropped.
- America use 26% of the world's non-renewable energy despite being just 5% of the world population - LA Times 2007
- By the year 2040, 50% of the world's energy will come from renewable sources such as solar panels, according to Shell Oil Predictions.
How solar works?
- The sun emits solar rays on our silicone cell solar panels.
- Direct current goes from the solar panels to the invertor.
- The invertor sends alternate current to the panel box and household electric use.
- Electricity that isn't used by the household consumption is credited by the power company (i.e. DWP and Addison) and the meter will count backwards!
Why should I go Solar?
Using solar panels as a renewable source of energy has many benefits.
Here are some of the advantages of installing solar panel system:
- Save money
- Great investment
- Raise property value
- Good for the environment
- Energy independence
Save money
By installing a solar panel system, you will start saving money off of your electric bill immediately and also protect yourself from annual increases in electricity rates and prices.
Optimistic projections show 7% increase (pretty much the current rate with the exclusion of the world's economy situation) and pessimistic projections show 15% increase (just like the current politic situation in the Middle East caused) both with natural inflation rate factored in.
Based on an Energy bill of $200 a month:
- In 15 years your bill will be $593 with 7% increase.
- With 15% rate hikes your bill will be $2289 in 15 years.
*With our financing options you would be able to get the solar panel system for a fixed rate and payment equal or close to your current electric bill.
It means that in 15 years you will pay $200 still, because you can lock a fixed finance payment but locking an energy bill is impossible.
90% of the world's energy is being produced from natural resources that will be consumed in time and run out one day, and we all will feel that inevitable “Energy Crisis” that everyone is talking about. But we will feel that crisis decades before the oil and other natural resources will run dry completely.
Now it's a basic rule of economics, if the supply is running short the demand is higher therefore the cost of these natural resources will rise significantly, regardless to politics and natural inflation.
Great Investment
In comparison to other investments, solar panel system can produce higher return on investment, better than stocks or bonds.
Over time a solar panel investment will show even better profit and savings than any other long term investment.
*Solar panels are a tax free return on investment and will not raise your property tax

Raise property value
Solar panel system will increase your property value without increasing your property tax in addition to eliminating your energy bills.
- In the first year of installing your solar panels your property value will increase by $20 for every $1 you save on your energy cost.
- On average you will save $2000 dollar off of your electric bill and add $40,000 to your property value.
- Besides the mathematic value increase to your property, your home will be a “Utility Free Home” which makes it high on demand and more desirable to the potential buyer.
Good for the environment
Standard power production involves “Dirty” fossil fuels and release of greenhouse gasses and pollutants into our atmosphere.
The fossil fuels are derived from natural sources, usually in the form of oil, coal or natural gas and being used in approximately 90% of the world's power manufacturing.
By choosing to go green with solar panels you helping in the switch to renewable clean energy production.
Energy Independence
Most of the natural sources for energy production are being imported, out of that 68% is coming from high or very high risk countries, such as Libya and Iraq.
This put the United States at risk of resources shortage and politic compromise, foreign and domestic.
Installing a solar panel system is the first step towards energy independence; it will bring your household to electric independence.
