Why Solar?
Considering Buying Solar
Solar energy can provide a positive impact to you and the environment. The use of Solar energy minimizes the daily consumption and use of fossil fuels which generate pollutants that are harmful to the both humans and our environment.
Solar power reduces the quantity of contamination and toxic waste from other so called clean energy sources, and is a technology that harnesses the suns natural resource (light), something that is accessible in every location in the world. One of the biggest advantages of solar PV is that it can save you money and hedge against future energy inflation.
Among the renewable energies, solar is becoming more popular because of its easy installation and lower costs. From home owners to business owners, installing solar PV will build equity for your property and can generate returns on your investments usually under 10 years. 2 major factors that affect ROI for a PV system are Sunlight Exposure and kWh price from the grid.

Questions to Answer When Adopting Solar
How Much Are You Paying in Energy Bills?
If you consider that your electricity bills are high, solar will come as a great investment opportunity for you. Most home or business owners will consider this investment attractive by analyzing the potential savings that they will offset from generating electricity versus their current electricity costs.
How is the quality of the energy taken from the grid?
If you suffer power cut-offs, voltage fluctuations or drops, several grid failures in a year, etc. then you can increase the efficiency of your business and the confort of your house in these times installing a solar system with batteries that keep you with electricity the whole time.
Is My Roof Big Enough for a PV Array?
The orientation and the available roof or ground space will determine the amount of power that can be generated for a specific PV project. Higher efficiency cells can increase the amount of power available per square meter. Before you acquire a PV system, always consult with a professional PV installer. It is necessary to consider: the size available on the surface area for the installation, the orientation and tilt angle of your roof, the capacity to support added weight and the electrical component placement (inverter, battery and meter).
Do I Live in a Suitable Place for Solar Energy?
Yes everybody does! The best suitable places for solar installations are: those with clear skies, high elevations, large yearly radiance values, low temperature conditions (for Crystalline Technology) and zero to minimal shading surrounding the install site. One of the best places for solar due to the large and constant time of daily sun light along the year is the Caribbean.
