- Tax Credit Savings
- Receive a tax credit for 30% of the system value. A typical credit can be worth up to $5,000 or more.

- Develop domestic energy resources
- Solar reduces oil and natural gas use by offsetting peak electricity demand.

Common Solar Questions
- What maintenance is required?
- No maintenance is required. The system turns on automatically in the morning and off automatically at night.
- Will my system work at night or on cloudy days?
- At night, your home draws electricity from the local utility. On cloudy days, your system will produce less electricity depending upon the thickness of the cloud cover.
- How long will my SunPower system last?
- Because they have no moving parts and are made of inert materials, SunPower SunTile® and Solar Panels are inherently durable. Their laminate is backed by a 25-year limited warranty, and the related system components are designed to last for many years without incident.
- Are solar electric systems good for the environment?
- Energy created through the SunPower system produces no pollutants. By offsetting peak electricity demand, SunPower systems reduce the need for oil and gas-fired power plants. Over a thirty-year period, a 2.3 Vp system typically offsets the same amount of greenhouse gases as 30 acres of trees.2
- How do I sell my surplus electricity back to the utility?
- At certain hours and on certain days, homes with solar electric systems will often produce more electricity than they consume. Through a “net metering” arrangement with the local utility, your surplus electricity is credited against your bill.
