Our Visit to the Enphase Lab 

Our team had the opportunity to visit the Enphase Lab in Fremont, CA to train on the Fourth Generation Battery System. We were also able to view the upcoming Enphase bi-directional charger. Finally, a charger is coming to the market that will work with the majority of EVs, providing power to the home during a power outage.

We will continue to keep you posted about

all the exciting innovations ahead!

Get the Best Benefits and BE IN CONTROL !

Solar



Switching to solar energy offers numerous benefits, including substantial cost savings, environmental sustainability, and greater energy independence. As a clean and renewable energy source, solar power can significantly reduce your electricity bills.

In addition to these advantages, installing solar panels can increase your property's value and serve as a smart long-term investment.

With solar, YOU ARE IN CONTROL - you have the ability to stabilize your electricity costs—locking in rates as low as $0.08 per kWh for up to 25 years, protecting yourself from rising utility prices. 

Electric Vehicles

Electric vehicles (EVs) offer significant advantages over gas-powered vehicles. They offer lower running costs, reduced environmental impact, and an enhanced driving experience. They are highly energy-efficient, require minimal maintenance, and can be conveniently charged at home.

For homeowners with solar power, EVs provide the added benefit of CONTROLLING FUEL COSTS—making clean, renewable energy your fuel source.

Click on the column headings to learn how we can help you take advantage of these benefits.

Energy Storage Systems

(Batteries)

While solar power can reduce your energy costs, systems without battery storage remain reliant on the utility grid during nighttime and peak usage periods.

With Battery Backup, YOU ARE IN CONTROL -

Adding battery storage allows you to store excess solar energy for use when the sun isn’t shining—making you less dependent on the grid and more in control of your home’s energy supply.

COMING SOON!!

We’re always looking for ways to bring you more value and energy efficiency. We will soon be adding heat pump and heat pump water heater installation to our services.

These systems can help lower your energy bills, reduce your carbon footprint, and keep your home comfortable year-round. It's a great gas-to-electric conversion option. There are financial incentives through the Inflation Reduction Act, as well.

Curious?

• Click here for information from Consumer Reports.
• Information from the U.S. Department of Energy about heat pumps and heat pump water heaters.

Stay tuned—we’ll be sharing more details soon!

Tons of Tariffs

How are tariffs affecting our pricing you may ask? Most manufacturers have moved their production to the U.S. but are still outsourcing materials from overseas. Our primary solar module manufacturer in Singapore has not had a tariff increase and our solar prices are low.



The Enphase microinverter prices have dropped. But battery prices are going up.

Humor to Brighten Your Day:

• When there’s a huge solar energy spill…It’s just called a nice day.
• Why are solar panels always optimistic? They keep their sunny side up. 

Is Your Electric

Vehicle Charged?

Start each day with a full charge. Investing in an EV charger will save you time and give you a tax credit this year! Thinking of adding a second EV to your home? Let's talk about electric load and needing a second charger.

Main Electrical Panel

If tripping breakers are a common occurrence, your electrical panel could be damaged. Outdated or overwhelmed electrical panels are the main cause of electrical fires. Your panel may also need to be upgraded to install an EV charger. But no worries, we can help.
