What Are All The Benefits of Using Solar Energy?

Switching to solar will reduce your carbon footprint. Studies have shown that solar homes generate 80% fewer carbon emissions than homes that use fossil fuels. A U.S. Energy Information Administration study found that homes in CT that use solar reduce their emissions to equal 150 new trees planted/ per year. 

• There is no cost to produce solar energy. 

• Solar allows you to generate clean energy that you can store, sell and use to power your home.

• Battery storage systems allow you to use electricity even when the power is out.

• Reduce water usage. Fossil fuel production requires water for cooling. 38% percent of the United States freshwater goes to cooling during power generation. Solar production does not require any water to cool.
