1 / How does solar energy work?

Solar panels capture sunlight and convert it into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) cells. This energy can power your home or business directly, with excess energy stored in a Tesla Powerwall or sent back to the grid.

2 / What is the Residential Clean Energy Credit?

The Residential Clean Energy Credit is a federal tax credit that allows homeowners to claim 30% of their solar installation costs on their federal taxes. This applies to equipment, labor, and related expenses for systems installed through 2032.

3 / How much can I save by switching to solar?

Savings depend on your energy usage and system size, but the average Florida homeowner saves around $150 per month and $50,000+ over the system’s lifetime.

4 / How long does it take to install a solar system?

The installation process typically takes 1–3 days, depending on system size. However, permitting and inspections can add a few weeks to the timeline.

5 / What maintenance is required for solar panels?

Solar panels require minimal maintenance, such as periodic cleaning and routine inspections to ensure peak performance.

6 / What happens if there’s a power outage?

With a Tesla Powerwall or similar battery storage, you’ll have backup power during grid outages. Without a battery, solar panels will shut off for safety reasons.

7 / Do solar panels work during cloudy weather?

Yes, solar panels still generate power on cloudy days, though production may decrease compared to sunny conditions.

8 / Can I add more panels later if needed?

Yes! Our systems are designed to be expandable to accommodate your growing energy needs.

9 / What’s the difference between residential and commercial solar?

Residential solar systems are typically smaller and designed to power a single home. Commercial systems are larger, designed to meet higher energy demands for businesses and facilities.

10 / What incentives are available for businesses?

Businesses can benefit from the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which offers a 30% tax credit on installation costs. Additional depreciation benefits are also available through MACRS.
