Solar Savings
Q: How much does a solar energy system cost?
A: It is impossible to give a simple answer, since this depends on system capacity, home layout, and other variables. Certainly the cost has gone down dramatically in recent years, and now there are many tax breaks, electricity buy-back programs, and incentives. Please contact a local certified Schüco dealer for pricing and more information.
Q: How does electricity buyback work?
A: This is often called “net metering” and is available from many utility companies. If you generate more electricity than you use, the excess goes back to your utility company, spinning the meter backward and giving you a credit for the electricity your PV system generated.
Q: Where can I find out about federal and state incentives?
A: The US Department of Energy (www.dsireusa.org) has a database of federal and state
incentives for renewable energy.
