•Why Solar?......Why Not?
Stop giving your money away to the utility company and invest that money towards your own clean, renewable and affordable power plant. Earn a great ROI and add equity to your home all while helping our environment!
Now with the help of the Sonoma County Energy Independence Program, CA state rebate and a 30% federal tax credit, solar electric systems have never been so affordable. Renninger Electric can install a solar system that will meet or beat what you are currently paying on your electric bill starting the first year it is installed! Your savings just keep going up every year as electric rates inevitably increase! -
•Hedge Against Rising Utility Rates
High Cost of Electricity -
California has among the highest rates of electricity in the country, with electricity rates reaching as high as $0.50 per kWh, for some customers, and steadily increasing. Over the last 30 years, rates for residential customers in California have increased at an average of 6.5% per year. -
•Solar Power is Better for the Environment
Generating electricity from solar energy reduces your consumption of fossil fuels, which decreases pollution and greenhouse gas emission. By switching to solar power, you will combat global warming and reduce our nation’s dependence of foreign energy sources. Even a small solar electric system has a significant environmental impact. For example, a 2.5kW solar system reduces CO2 emissions by an amount similar to that which would occur by planting 1 acre of trees, or the amount of CO2 emitted by a passenger car driving 7,800 miles per year. -
•Add Value to your Home
The Appraisal Journal, a professional resource for appraisers, has estimated that a saving of $1.00 in annual utility cost could equate to $20 in increased value. Saving $150 per month could be worth as much as $36,000 in added home value.
Property Tax Exemption: In California, solar systems are exempt from state property reassessment tax. This means, you benefit from increased property value deriving from the addition of solar system to your home without the penalty of taxation.
