Energy from the Sun
Whether you want to lower your electric bill, provide all of your own "green electricity, or be prepared with live backup power, now is the time to invest in a photovoltaic (PV) system. With the significant advances in energy efficiency and considerable government incentives, generating your own electricity from the sun has never been more easy and affordable.
Green Electricity from Solar Panels
Solar panels or photovoltaic systems (PV) convert sunlight directly intro electricity. Electricity generated from your PV panels provides power for your needs first with any excess being sold back to the utility for others to use ("Net Metering"). PV systems now come with a 25 year warranty on the panels, ensuring electricity for future generations. PV systems have no moving parts and are virtually maintenance free.
SandEnergy provides experienced system engineers and PV installers to design and install economical energy systems for your home or facility.
Did You Know?
In less than 30 minutes, the sun radiates as much energy as the entire world population consumes in all forms, during an entire year!
Renewable Energy Has Never Been More Affordable
Several federal, state, and local tax incentives, including grant monies, exist to help defray the cost of installing a renewable energy system. In many locations, the combined benefits of these programs allow you to reduce the cost by more than 50%. Our professional sales staff has extensive knowledge of these programs and can fully explain the financial options available to you and will help you process the paperwork to ensure you get every rebate and benefit possible.
In the long run, renewable energy installed on your home or facility provides a hedge against rising electricity and fossil fuel costs. With incentives at an all time high, investing in sustainable, secure, reliable power is a smart solution for you personal energy security. Let the experts at SandEnergy help you put the power of the sun to work for you.
Green (Solar) Hot Water
Generating or maintaining hot water using conventional fuel wastest resources and money. A solar hot water system can provide up to 85% of domestic hot water and can be combined with space heating to realize even more savings during the winter months.
Quality solar hot water systems are designed to last more than 25 years, long outlasting the payback period of 5 to 9 years. They also require very little maintenance. And when combined with a PV system, you can maximize the near and long term benefits of solar energy with the security of locally generated power.
Power From the Wind
Electricity generated from wind is actually an extension of solar power. Wind results from the uneven heating of the earth by the sun. The wind generated from this process can be used to turn a turbine which, in turn, uses a mechanical process to generate electricity in much the same way as water turns a turbine to generate electricity from a dam.
Not all sites are suitable for wind power, however. The engineers at SandEnergy provide expert site analysis to determine the amount of electricity you can expect to generate from wind turbine technologies as well as any zoning or neighborhood restrictions that may prevent the installation of a wind tower on your property.
GeoThermal (Natural Heat from the Earth)
GeoThermal heat pumps (GSHP) use the relatively constant temperature of the ground or water several feet below the earth's surface to heat and cool your property and they are appropriate for retrofit or new homes. We will survey the specific geological, hydrological and spatial characteristics to determine the best type for your site.
