Demand for solar electricity is steadily increasing. The costs of electricity are rising and government incentives have made solar a viable option for homebuyers. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, the market for solar has grown roughly 20% annually since the 1990's. Currently solar is a $7 billion dollar business today and the solar market will grow to $30 billion by 2010. Solar power is a proven reliable energy source and has grown significantly in the past five years. Recently, momentum has increased due to Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's support of the 2005 Million Solar Roofs Initiative.

Communities and community’s officials are welcoming developers who show concern for the environment, making land easements and permits easier to obtain. Using BIPV (building integrated photovoltaic) products featuring solar electricity in your developments, you'll build faster with fewer roadblocks, turn units quicker and realize more immediate revenue.

The initial solar investment is often less than homeowners think. The capital expense can be cut by half or more with government sponsored incentives and rebates. And solar is 100% tax-exempt, so adding solar electricity increases a home's value without increasing property taxes. Learn more about our residential solar installation program.
