How Do Solar Panels Make Electricity?





Why is it important to go solar now?
Electricity prices have recently increased to the highest levels in decades. And specifically, natural gas prices are currently the highest they’ve been since 2008.
The current federal solar incentive is currently set at 30%. It is, however, scheduled to decrease in 2033 from 30% down to 26% and from 26% to 22% in 2034. There has never been a better time to go solar, as the incentives remain at their highest, and inflation is slowly creeping the prices of solar installations up.
If your electricity bill comes in around $100 a month or more, there’s good chance solar could save you big money in its 25+ year lifespan. You could even end up zeroing your bill out, depending on your energy consumption.
Currently it is estimated that an average property value increase with a residential solar system installation amounts to approximately $22,000. In addition, there is no property tax increase in Florida. And when homeowners sell solar homes, they sell them faster!
