Why Burns & Scalo?
olar panels convert the sun’s energy to generate efficient energy that can be used to
power your home all year round.
Solar energy is easy to create, clean, and less costly than the electric you currently
purchase from your utility company. When combined with State and Federal Incentives,
solar power is financially attractive. The cost of solar panels depends on the size of the
system and the lucrative incentive and rebate programs currently available. You could
save as much as 50-80% on your solar installation.
As fossil fuel sources dwindle, utility rates go up and solar panels costs go down. More
and more areas across the United States are switching to solar as a cost effective way
to produce electricity. It’s like turning your meter in reverse.
The Solar Return:
- Energy Savings – up to 50% of your current electric bill
- Sale of Solar Renewable Energy Credits (SRECS) more than triple the value of the energy saved and earned every time your system generates 1,000 kWh.
- Pennsylvania Sunshine Rebate program – as much as 30% of installed cost returned to you with 60 days of completed installation. We will apply for the rebate on your behalf.
- Investment Tax Credit (ITC) – 30% of installed cost subtracted from your Federal Income Tax.
- We can show you how much money you can potentially save over the course of 10 to 30 years and you will be amazed at the savings!
Advantages of solar energy:
- Environmental friendly, renewable energy.
Did you know that utility companies produce over 70% of the electricity in the US by burning fossil fuels? Solar energy reduces carbon emissions. It’s good for
you, your community and the environment.
- Independence from rising utility costs.
Increases your home value over time. According to the National Appraisal Institute you can increase your property value $20,000 for every $1,000 you save
on electricity per year.
- Maintenance free and a 25 year life expectancy
The Solar Purchase:
The Solar industry is changing so rapidly that even a cost range of $5.00 to $6,00 per watt if installed power may be out-of-date tomorrow. We can get specific with costs
when provided with certain information about your property. The good news is that
solar panel costs are going down and panel efficiency is improving. Why not wait for
better pricing? Because as prices improve government incentives decline. Plus, you
lose the opportunity to start saving now.
