Blog-2 - Misconceptions About Solar Energy

Common misconceptions about solar energy are addressed in this document. The two main concerns people have are cost and lack of information. While the upfront cost can be high, solar panels pay for themselves within 5-6 years through reduced electricity bills. A lack of information should not discourage people from going solar, as free site surveys and assessments provide all the necessary information in one place. Proper solar panel installation and occasional cleaning are needed for optimal performance over the 25 year lifespan of most panels.

Misconceptions About Solar

Energy Cleared Up

When the topic of solar energy is brought up, there seem to be many common
misconceptions. To help you better understand the realities of going solar, we’ll go
through our findings and set the record straight on solar panel myths.

Common Hesitations for Going Solar


Its true that people has hesitations for going solar. Cost and lack of information are two
of the highest concerns that may prevent people from installing solar systems. Let’s
address these initial hesitations.

Cost
The overwhelming top concern about going solar is the cost. More than 90% of the
people are concerned about cost of solar system.

Although there is an initial investment, going solar actually results in cost savings. A
reduced electrical bill means saving money every month. Over time, this investment will
pay for itself and begin to turn a profit. Since each solar project is unique, the cost varies
depending on the needs of your installation. To understand your rooftop solar system
size and electricity bill savings use solar calculator. 

Lack of Information
Another major concern people has the lack of information surrounding solar. Finding
and piecing together information to plan a solar system installation may seem daunting.
Add that to the actual installation itself and it might discourage even the most ambitious
of people.

A lack of information shouldn’t keep you from reaching your solar goals. Our free site
survey and assessment provides you with all the information you need in one place.
Whether you decide to build it yourself, or hire us to work for you, you can take control
of your solar installation.

How Long Will It Take Me to See ROI?


The fact is that most grid-tied CAPEX Model solar systems pay for themselves in about 5
to 6 years. Since solar panels are warranted for 25 years, once your system has paid for
itself, you’ll enjoy years of profit on your investment.  
Solar Panels Are Effective Regardless of Your Climate
Although peak sun hours vary by location, both cold and hot climates are capable of
harvesting solar energy. There are also numerous ways to maximize your solar panel
efficiency. Selecting the most efficient solar panel is important, but you’ll also want to
be sure to install the panels strategically and properly care for them over time.

Solar Panel Cleaning and Maintenance


Another solar panel myth is that solar panel cleaning is needed often, and maintenance
is difficult. 

In reality, solar panel cleaning and maintenance aren’t very complicated. Of course,
you’ll want to take care of your solar panels and system to ensure everything functions
well for years to come, but following a few best practices for solar panel
maintenance will ensure this is the case.
