Nonprofits and Public Facilities - Benefits
Solar
Electric Systems are one of the best investments you can make. If you
are like me, and attend church, active in Boy Scouts, coach or referee
soccer and have kids in school, you know what it means to contribute to
the community. Power is
necessary for all these activities. Black outs are unnecessary as long
as the SUN shines.
Financial
incentives have not only brought these systems within reach but also
create a long term annuity for your organization. Make your company Eco
Friendly. Environmental benefits enhance your organization's image and
create an annuity for future generations. Following are just examples of
few benefits:
- Lock
in lower electricity rates over the next 30 years by producing your
own electricity and make a sizeable impact on your bottom line,
- Avoid
utility rate hikes or black out periods when you need the power the
most.
- Sell
back your excess power production to your utility company in
exchange for energy credits for use during times of less production
or greater need.
- The
yield paybacks are usually within 4 to 7 years, equating to as much
as 25 years of free electricity—this equates to approx. 500%
return on investment over the life of the system.
- Reduce
dependence on fossil fuels and promote clean energy alternatives,
- Use
existing, underutilized assets like rooftops or unused land to
generate renewable power.
- Protect
the environment--create and use clean energy.
- Contribute
to prevent risks involved with the storage of nuclear waste from
nuclear power plants.
- Reduce
pollution to the environment from mercury pollution produced by coal
burning power plants.
- Reduce
global warming effects contributed by the carbon dioxide (CO2)
output.
- Reduce
SCE’s need to build more power plants which result in increased
cost to you.
