How Solar Panels Benefit Your Home

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, no – it’s the sun! The sun is an astonishing source of source of energy and, if harnessed to it fullest, the energy could meet our global demands a few thousand times over. Though nonrenewable energy providers like the coal and oil industries would have you think solar power is too expensive, the cost to install solar panels has dropped more than 70% since 2010. This is because the majority of the cost is in setting the foundation or infrastructure (not unlike the high initial cost of building the infrastructure for nonrenewable energy was). However, unlike nonrenewable energy, solar energy is renewable: the marginal cost does not increase as supply decreases as it does with oil, coal, and natural gases. Last but by no means the least, solar energy is clean and helps to preserve our environment and its habitants. We can not say the same about dirty oil and coal which has been devastating our ozone, plant life, and animal life. It should come as no surprise that solar has experienced an average annual growth of 68 percent in the past decade alone! 

If you have been interested in solar energy but haven’t had the opportunity to learn more or take your first steps, now is the best time! Please read on to see the breakdown of the benefits of switching to solar and consider contacting a Mr. Electric of Fort Worth to schedule a local electrician to have this wonderful technology installed and implemented today!

The guys were super nice, I loved that they did the work immediately. Also after having a discussion with them about the static electricity from a lightenimg strike we had and it fried everything they suggested a surge protector to keep that from happening again. So we did that.

Scheduled an appointment with Mr Electric of Fort Worth and received a call  they were able to show up early and had Dylan show up on time stocked with a full truck. He was able to diagnosis the issue quickly and restore my power to a few plugs that were causing the breakers to trip continuously. Dylan was very knowledgable, clearly explained the cause and how he would fix the issue, and addressed all concerns that we had. He was replaced two breakers and installed 2 new outlets along with diagnosing the problem in about an hour. Very quick and so far seems to have resolved our electrical issue. Would definitely recommend Mr Electric of Fort Worth!

Dylan was so nice and always on time. Very qualified and explained everything he needed to do in a way I understood. My older house required an outside panel so I had a lot of work but Dylan and his helper worked together very well and finished on time so I was not out of power more than needed. Everything looked and worked great when done. I don't know how he was able to replace the cracked power pole and wiring on my roof so quickly and beautifully. I am very, very impressed with his skill level and would request him for any future work. The company is very well organized and office contact was a pleasure to work with(which is rare since these positions are usually underpaid)so reward her well, she is the "door" to your organization. She and Dylan sealed my deal!

Cody was professional, knowledgeable, and was able to provide me with a quick diagnosis pertaining to a wiring issue in one of my rooms. He gave me the price for the repair/modification and fixed the issue all in less than an hour. Thanks Cody!

Economic

One of the first reasons - and often the only reason – that people give for shying away from solar energy is the false notion that it is too expensive. In fact, switching to solar energy could save you well above $100 a month and offers potential savings from day one! More importantly, solar offers secure and stable energy costs as opposed to the constantly fluctuating prices of your local utility provider. This is because the costs are minimal after the initial installation. There are even tax breaks for residents who switch to solar energy and homes with solar panels sell 20% faster and for 17% more according to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory.

The economic benefits of solar reaches far more than the individual level. Switching to solar reduces the dependency on foreign energy like oil, coal, and natural gas which collectively make up 40% of our imports too often from countries and regimes whose policies do not align with our economic, political, and social interests. The 1973 oil embargo was a tough lesson on the importance of energy independence and sustainability. Depending on foreign energy sources sent inflation and unemployment through the roof. To say this had no effect on the morale of residents would be disingenuous.

Even on the global level, switching to renewable energy like solar saves on costs to clean up pollution and helps to prevent devastating wars over nonrenewable energy reserves.

Environmental

Money is not everything – truly. The benefits of switching to solar are so much more than economic. Solar energy is sustainable and clean; solar energy benefits all of us psychologically, physically, and environmentally.

Put plain and simple: nonrenewable energy like coal and oil is bad for the environment and bad for our health. Switching to solar helps offset the carbon dioxide emissions that pollute the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the soil in which we grow our plants.

Ergonomic

Solar panels are ergonomic and pleasant to the eye. They are installed on the roof and take up the same space that shingles take up. While electric cables, nuclear plants, coal mines, oil refineries create bleak and crowded scenery, solar panels are aesthetically pleasing and come in many designs – there are even some shaped just like shingles.
