With the cost of
natural gas and electricity going through the roof, it is now time to start
thinking about your energy budget as a whole.
You
can't make your own gasoline and you can't make your
own natural gas, but now you CAN make your
own electricity. And the best part about it is that
the fuel to make own electricity falls from the sky everyday for free.
Thousands of utility customers throughout the U.S., who were tired of the high
cost of electricity have taken advantage of the huge rebates and tax credits
which are available for the installation of solar energy systems on their homes
and businesses.
For example, In
Iowa,
There
are cash rebates available
from multiple utilities of up to
$10,000.00 for the
installation of a
residential or commercial
solar electric system.
There's also a 30%
Federal tax credit
with no cap available for
residential and commercial
installations.
And unlike
the old solar systems of
yesteryear that produced hot water, these new systems actually
generate electricity.
Clean reliable electricity to run lights,
TVs, air conditioning, pumps, refrigerators, computers and many other appliances, all with free energy from the Sun !
Depending on the size system you choose and the number of loads you have running during the day, it is actually possible watch the power company's meter run backwards.
Since 1997 the staff here at
Iowa Solar has developed an unmatched level of expertise in the design and implementation of systems that qualify for
many State rebate programs. We offer free assistance in the design of your system,
we can help you in locating a qualified, experienced contractor in your area and can even assist you with the submission of your
rebate application to your State.
With
more than 15,000 customers worldwide, we
possess the knowledge, the experience and the
strategic partnerships to make your transition
into solar an experience that's not only
enjoyable but also rewarding.

California and other states have adopted a much more stringent system to rate real world performance of solar panels. This rating system assigns what is known as a PTC (PVUSA Test Conditions) rating to each solar panel that is approved for use in their rebate programs.
This rating system was developed to test and compare PV systems as part of the PVUSA (Photovoltaics for Utility Scale Applications) project.
The PTC rating, which is lower than the STC (Standard Test Conditions) rating, is generally recognized as a more realistic measure of PV output because the test conditions better reflect "real-world" solar and climatic conditions, compared to the STC rating.

Only The Finest Available Products
Ask any alternative energy engineer,
installer or dealer and they'll all tell you the same thing. With more than three gigawatts (3 billion watts) worth of Sunny Boy inverters sold and operating worldwide "The Sunny Boy
inverter's proven technology makes this unit one of the best grid
intertie inverters available on today's market." Like a fine German crafted
sports car, Sunny Boy Inverters are engineered and built in Germany, the hotbed
of the worlds finest renewable energy
technology. We've taken Sunny Boy's unbeatable
German craftsmanship and reliability a step
further by adding one of the world's highest
performance solar panels
available.
When it comes to purchasing a solar system
for your home or business it is crucial that
you take a very close look at the solar
panels that the dealer is offering you.
After all, solar panels are the workhorse of any solar system. Far too many consumers simply purchase what ever it is that a dealer
happens to have available without even looking at a specification sheet. Performance that is lacking by just a few percentage points or
an inferior warranty can make all the difference in the world over the expected
life of a solar panel.
With more than nine years of experience operating our own state of the art, in-house solar repair
center, we know what technologies perform well in the real world and what
technologies do not.
Over
the years, we've seen expensive, name
brand, solar panels fail only after a
few months worth of use. We've even seen
small U.S. manufacturer's solar panels
fail soon after the manufacturer closed
its doors leaving its customers with no
warranty.
This is
why it is important that you choose a
solar panel manufacturer that is well
established in the industry and has the
financial strength to be there in the event that a warranty claim arises. This is exactly why we
chose government owned Phono Solar for our
Sapphire
series solar systems.
Reliable Solar Power That You Can Bank
On
With 2.1 Billion Dollars Of Revenue
For 2008
Sumec Possesses The Financial Muscle To

high efficiency solar modules provide an
extremely stable platform for decades
worth clean, dependable, investment
grade solar power which is ideal for use
in commercial, industrial and
residential applications.
Thin
might be in when it comes to
waistlines and the latest HDTV sets but
when it comes to securing the bulk of
your investment to the roof of your home
you want the strongest mounting system
made out of the thickest aircraft

The engineers at UniRac
understand this premise and we do too so
we've added the finest mounting rack
systems available today. The UniRac SolarMount system is unsurpassed in quality
and durability, rated to withstand up to 110 miles per hour wind speeds, UniRac
ClickSys Mounts are engineered to last a lifetime.

And according to the following
manufacturer's own specification sheets, the
Phono Solar
PS240M-20/U 240 Watt panel
offers a better negative tolerance
rating than the SunPowerâ
line of solar panels, the BPâ
line of solar panels, and the Kyoceraâ
LP Series 180 Through 210 Watt Solar Panels. A better negative tolerance
rating means that you are guaranteed in writing of getting
more of the power that you paid for.
The
Phono Solar
PS240M-20/U
also offers a warranty that is 5 years longer than the Sanyoâ
180 through 205 watt panels and the Kyoceraâ 170 through 210 Watt panels.
"The single most
important criteria when choosing a solar panel is not price nor is it
performance. It's the financial strength of the manufacturer behind the solar
panel's guarantee."
Thousands of U.S. consumers
will make the same mistake this Summer that so many have made in the past of
trying to save a few pennies per Watt by buying non name brand solar panels
without ever looking into the manufacturer's history or even its current
financial status.

expected system performance
and will be calculated based on equipment ratings
and installation factors, such as geographic
location, tilt, and shading.)
