The cost of energy keeps going up while the cost of solar has come down quickly.
Going with solar power, as opposed to buying electricity from the grid, is a sound investment in your home since that money will be added to your home’s property value. Let Golden Bear Solar show you how going solar can transform your life for the better. Here are a number of things you need to know about solar power and how it can impact your savings.
Solar Power is getting more affordable
The Good news is the price of solar panels have come down 75% in the last 10 years!
Energy costs keep rising
The bad news is the cost of electricity keeps going up. PG&E has increased rates 95% in the last 10 years alone!
How much can you save?
If we look at some examples of how you can save money (based on a $200 per month PG&E electric bill), you will see why installing solar is an excellent investment.
Reducing your reliance on PG&E
With a standard solar system, you only pay PG&E about $10 per month. The rest goes in your pocket, enabling you to pay off your solar power system.
With a SmartSolar™ system you can save even more.
Utilizing the latest in Smart Solar technology, we can improve your monthly savings even more.
Over time your savings add up
Think about what you can do with the money you save:
• An extra vacation every year? • A new electric car?
• Save for your children’s college?
Real World Savings
How much you can save if your electric bill averages $400 per month.
(These are estimates based on rates increasing at 5% a year. PG&E has increased much more than this over the past 10 years.)
This is the cost of doing nothing
When you take a look at how much money you are losing to energy costs over time, it’s easy to see why Smart Solar is the right choice.
Most people only talk about protecting the environment.
Taking action is important
An average solar system can help far more than most people realize.
Your system can offset the CO2 from burning 190 tons of coal.
A positive effect on our environment
Or offset the CO2 from driving a car 430,000 miles.
How much can you save?
Installing a solar power system can save the equivalent of 217 acres of trees.
There is a better way
Most of California’s energy sources (71%) are terrible for the environment.
Solar is a way you can use clean, renewable energy.
