How it works

Your home’s electricity will come from the sun on a sunny day. Solar panels capture those rays and turn them into waves of electric energy that flow through silicon strips, interacting with electrons inside each cell until they’re excited enough to move about freely as direct current (DC). You can’t use this type for powering electronics at your house, so an inverter is needed to convert the electricity to alternating current (AC). Your solar panels create electricity to power your home while sending any extra electricity to the utility company for credits later redeemed thanks to the net metering program.

Net metering

The USA’s net metering program is one of the best systems in America to allow homeowners with solar panels on their roofs an opportunity for energy independence. The system works like a rollover minute cell phone plan where if you use less than what your home produces, then credits will be given from those extra servings to be used at night and on cloudy days. With this program, we can ensure you will never again have a utility bill more than your connection fee. The net metering program is not active in every area, so consult with one of our professionals here (hyperlink to request to schedule an appointment) to see if you qualify for the net metering program. 

 

Benefits

There are many reasons to invest in solar energy. Not only will you enjoy savings and security, but the environment is likely one of them! With rates skyrocketing over recent years, people risk losing their homes because utility bills have become too expensive for them – don’t let this happen when there’s an easy solution at hand. Schedule a time to meet with one of our consultants, and we can show you exactly how much you are indebted to the utility company over the next 30 years. We’ll also review how much in savings you could see and explain the tax credits associated with solar.

Tax credits

Government incentives are available for going solar! The federal government is willing to pay up to 30% of the value of your system through tax credits. In order to achieve their goal of generating 50% renewable energy by 2030, they’re providing financial assistance for people to switch to solar energy. Not everyone is eligible for these tax credits so, please speak with our team to discuss if this program is right for you. 

Why hire an installer

There are always ways to get cheaper products and services for any project. Do-it-yourself systems are available; however, at what cost are you willing to potentially damage your home and solar system? At Sky Diamonds, we offer a price-value guarantee that you get the best value than any of our competitors. After you agree to the system that is presented to you, we get our design team of engineers to ensure the system is safe and up to local building codes. After the design phase, the project is sent to local government to get all appropriate permits. We proceed to install your system after all I’s are dotted and T’s are crossed.
