Frequently Asked Questions

CAN SOLAR POWER REDUCE MY ENERGY COSTS?

Utilities can raise rates at any time. With a GPD solar power system, you can control and substantially lower your energy costs.

WHAT GOVERNMENT INCENTIVES EXIST?

The federal government offers tax credits or 2011 grants up to 30% of system cost. SREC credits and other similar incentives can further increase your benefit.

IS MY ROOF SUITABLE FOR SOLAR?

If your roof gets several hours of sun per day and faces south, southwest, or southeast, it is likely suitable.

WHAT HAPPENS TO THE SOLAR POWER THAT IS NOT USED?

The electricity generated by your solar power system goes back into the grid when you are not using it and turns your meter back, saving you the cost of that energy.
