Savings.

LOWER YOUR ENERGY COSTS

By generating your own solar power, you will drastically decrease your monthly energy bill. We custom-design each system to fit your needs, focusing on your energy usage, financial goals, and aesthetic desires throughout the installation process.

Whether you are improving your home or your business, now is the time to invest in solar energy. Not only will you dramatically and immediately lower your own energy costs, but you will qualify for state and federal tax credits that will offset 80% of your total installation costs. Lowering your bills while protecting the environment – now that’s a bright idea. Check out the graphs for a visual display of solar savings.

80% OF YOUR COSTS CAN BE OFFSET BY TAX CREDITS

Residents of Louisiana who purchase a solar electric or solar thermal system are entitled to receive both the Federal Residential Renewable Energy Tax Credit and the Louisiana Tax Credit for Solar and Wind Energy Systems on Residential Property. The Federal Tax Credit is equivalent to 30% of the installation costs of the system, and The Louisiana Tax Credit is equivalent to an additional 50%.

These two incentives can be combined to reduce the total cost of your solar system by 80%. See the table below for an example cost analysis of a solar system.
