Would you like to see what it would look like to go solar on your home?

The first question that we want to answer when looking at what going solar can mean for you is, "what is your solar offset?" Electrical usage offset is the expected percentage of your home's electrical consumption provided by it's solar panels. If your expected offset is over 100% it means that all of your energy consumption can be provided by solar.

Would you like all your home's power to be provided by solar? What happens when your solar system produces more power than you use?

What would that mean for you?

Montana requires all investor-owned utilities to offer net metering. With net metering, you get a full retail rate credit for the amount of power that you don't use and send back into the power grid. The surplus energy is applied as a credit to your next monthly bill. During peak months you can generate power to be used during non-peak months. If your solar system consistently provides more power to the grid than is needed, we believe that you should be entitled to compensation.
Also, you can consider Montana Solar Rebates, State Tax Credits, and Property Tax Exemptions, and the Federal Solar Investment Tax Credit.

What do these Benefits mean for homeowners?

Our federal solar investment tax credit and low interest rates are the two incentives with the biggest impact on the cost of going solar. With the ITC or tax credit, you can expect a credit of up to 40% of the entire cost of your system and with interest rates as low as 3.5% your monthly investment in going solar can be as little as $100/mo.*

Example: Solar power eliminates the $150 energy bill that you currently receive from your power company and replaces it with a $100 payment over the next 20 years. ($150 x 12 = $1,800) - ($100 x 12 = $1,200) = $600 Return on Investment after one year. As Utility rates continue to rise ($1,800 + $1,900 + $2,000... = $55,000 over 20 years), now your solar payment will stay the same ($100 x 12 x 20 = $24,000).

Your monthly solar investment stays the same or less than your current power bill and WILL NOT RAISE LIKE UTILITY RATES DO!

Energy Cost over 20 years without solar, $55,000. Cost of going solar over 20 years, $24,000. Return on Investment in Solar, $31,000.

Will my home increase in value?

The short answer is yes, and it will also sell faster than homes without solar according to the National Association of Realtors. On Average, the current cost to install a solar system is $3 per watt of solar energy - plus the generators, fees, ect. The average home solar system is between 5-7 kW. So, if you are looking at a system in the middle, say a 6-kilowatt system, you could expect to increase the value of your home by $24,000. 

You will be adding, on average, $24,000 in equity to your home (without a property tax increase).
All it takes is your most recent power bill, a 600 or more credit score, and a few minutes of your time to get started saving with solar.
