Solar Photovoltaic

Converting photons emitted from the sun into useable, inexpensive electricity is now commonplace. Solar Photovoltaic technology has proven to be one of the most economically advantageous ways to lower reliance on fossil fuel generated energy and significantly reduce electricity costs. AEA specializes in roof, ground, carport, and facade mounted systems for residential and commercial properties. Recent technological advancements gained in solar panel energy production efficiency and reduced equipment costs have shortened payback timeframes of solar pv systems to 3.5 years – 5.5 years, in most cases, with useful system lifetimes of over 25 years.

‍

The current 30% Federal Tax Credit (available through 2016), offsets almost 1/3 of total system costs while other state, federal, municipal and utility rebates and incentives are available, further helping to lower the cost of an installed solar pv system. Zero cost out-of-pocket Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) programs are a financing option that can make going solar affordable for anyone. Talk with our specialists today about which financing options are available for your property type and location.

Common Solar Photovoltaic Applications Include:

• Solar Attic / Ventilation Fans – reduce air conditioning energy consumption costs and extend the lifetime of your AC units. Cools your structural envelope during at night to maintain moderate interior daytime temperatures.
• Solar Electric Vehicle Charging Stations – power your electric vehicles with free electricity.
  Battery Back-up Storage – saves electricity generated during the day for use at night, or in the event of a utility grid failure.
• Concentrated and Cogenerated Solar Power Systems – generate electricity and hot water for domestic hot water, space heating, or hot water needed in process manufacturing.
