I was sick and tired of my electrical bill going up every quarter. I was tired of paying 1/3 of my bill the energy company for delivery charges. I was tired of not being in control and at the mercy of somebody else. After spending 7 years in california solar was becoming very popular and it just seem to make sense. Create a system and save money. Your bill will never go up and you will actually get paid for what you create through (SRECs), if you purchase your system and dont lease), and the extra energy you dont use your electricity company will credit you back for. Imagine that you go from paying a bill to getting paid for producing your own energy...twice. So i did my research online and compiled a list of installers in the local areas. I became very discuraged at first because non of the companies wanted to sell me the panels they only, i repeat, only wanted to lease them to me. Then i did some more research and figured out why. As i eplained earlier the "owner" of the panels gets paid twice and if you lease you dont own. They make all the money and you still have to pay them a bill so they get paid three times. I was down to two more companies and new england clean energy was my final call. They only sell the panels and there was no pressure to buy or lease like other companies. They came out and did an assessment and they provied me with a breakdown of my monthly payment, how much solar i would produce, and what my round about SRECs would be. I went with a slightly bigger system i will never have an electrical bill again. My payment is 210 a month, my SRECs are forecasted at $150 a month average(for 10 years), i will recieve a 1/3 total system cost refund on my taxes(tax credit ends 2016), and i will get money from the electricity company for what i dont use. My payment will drop to around 50 dollars a month. They quickly answered all my questions and returned my emails in a timely maner. Everyone on the staff was nice and friendly and at no point did i feel like a made the wrong move. I produced my first monthly bill in 1 week with the solar panels. The movement is real and if you dont at least give it a chance you are going to regret it. Get a quote now before its too late to get your 1/3 tax credit and start saving today.
