In August of 2022 we had our solar installed by Future Energy. The installation was done in one day and they explained and showed us how our system worked. We downloaded the app so we could see our system working. Many times, we had concerns that our system was not working properly, and we called, and left a message and got a response quickly that they checked our system on their end, and it was working properly. During a couple of power outages during the year our battery backup was able to power our home for the time we needed it. We were thankful on the nights of the outages that we could still have lights and our TV on. Unfortunately, due to the rising cost of power we have not saved much during the cold winter or the hot summer days. When we decided to install solar panels, we looked at what we were spending on energy and figured that with the monthly cost of the solar and the cost of power from SUMD we would only increase our energy cost by $50 on the months we use more energy. Again, due to the rise in cost we are paying more for our energy than we ever imagined and the cost of solar has made it difficult for us most months. We do like the system and having our battery backup when it is needed. We do wonder if we should have had more solar due to the money it is costing us for power. It has been difficult to get through to someone at Future to ask these questions. Hopefully we will be able to get a hold of someone and get more answers.
