Solar Estimates as a Business Decision

AtRich Hessler Solar, we are in the business of helping property owners reduce their monthly expenses. There’s no need to take out your wallet for the very first step. Oursolar estimatesare 100% free, with absolutely no obligation to buy anything. Own a 5 kW Solar Energy System for $15/week*.

We promise you will receive an honest analysis of solar energy that could help you dramatically reduce your current expenses.

How a Solar Estimate Can Decrease Your Costs and Boost Your Savings

Since 2008, we’ve built a loyal following of customers (both business owners and home owners) who appreciate the very tangible benefits of using solar energy.

Admittedly, some of our clients switch over to solar energy strictly environmental reasons. Others do it for social reasons (i.e. everyone else on the block has installed solar panels, and they don’t want to be the odd man out). But the overwhelming majority of businesses and homeowners that request a solar estimate do it for financial reasons.

And here’s why.

By installing solar panels on your property, you begin lowering your electricity bills on Day 1.

Solar energy’s potential to reduce costs and boost profits existed well before the recession. And this was at a time when PV installations were substantially more expensive and grid electricity was a lot more affordable. Now we have the American Recovery Act providing an unlimited 30% tax credit for a limited amount of time.

Over the past couple of years,solar panel prices have plummeted65% while fossil fuel costs have steadily risen. As a result, the cost savings and earning potential are both significantly higher now.

Estimating the Cost of Installing Solar PV on Your Property

Okay, so fair enough. The solar estimate is free. But what about the switching costs? How much money do you have to spend to actually install solar PV on your property to begin taking advantage of lower electricity bills?

The answer may surprise you.

By taking advantage ofincentives, it’s possible to own a 5 kW solar system, pay $0 to install it, and only be responsible for $15/week. You heard me correctly.

Solar energyisfree. Every hour, we’re bombarded with enough energy from the sun topower the entire worldfor a year. It is literally free, limitless energy. More important, solar systems are available with a 25-year warranty and can produce electricity for generations.

So just to recap:

  • Solar panels are a technology that lowers your electricity bills the moment they’re installed.
  • The technology is affordable thanks to a range of incentives that help reduce installation costs to $0.
  • You can quickly determine whether or not you qualify for all of the above, without paying a dime.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a climate change skeptic or tree-hugging hippie.

Installing solar PV technology is a business decision that makes a lot of financial sense. How much are your CDs earning? Do stock market volatility and losses keep you up at night? Did you know utility rates have increased 5.5% a year on average over a 30-year period?

If you’re serious about your business and family’s financial security, take the first step by requesting a 100% free, zero-risksolar estimatetoday. You have nothing to lose and so much to gain.

Get a Solar Estimate Today – For Only $15 a Week Own a 5 kW PV Solar System

For the past several years, the cost of installing a solar PV system has continued to plummet thanks to 3 converging trends:

  • Silicon prices have rapidly declined due to overproduction in the global solar PV market.
  • Fossil fuel prices have risen relative to solar energy, making traditional grid electricity an increasingly less attractive option for many home and business owners across the country.

And now, by taking advantage of these 3 trends, Rich Hessler Solar has just introduced a special offer that makes PV installations even more affordable for average Americans throughout the country.

Understanding whether or not you qualify for $15/week of PV energy begins with a simple solar estimate.

How the Solar Estimate and Promotion Work

Using this online contact form, you simply fill out your details to speak with a local installer and receive:

  • a firm solar estimate
  • a financing application

Entirely from the comfort of your home, meet with a local installer to learn how much money you’ll save by switching over to solar energy and whether you qualify to pay as little as $15 a week for clean electricity from the sun.

In addition, you can use the online solar estimate form to immediately receive an illustration of three different system options.

Both of these solar estimates are 100% free with zero obligation to buy anything.

But What Does It Mean to Pay $15/wk for Solar PV Energy?

Imagine owning a 5kW solar PV installation that costs you nothing upfront (i.e. $0 down) and for which you only pay $15 a week.

Depending on where you live and how much sunlight your home receives, a system of this size could be enough to power all of your electricity needs throughout the year.  In some cases, you may even have “negative” electricity bills in which your local utility company actually pays YOU for the excess clean energy you generate and sell.

How much energy your system generates and how low your electricity bills go ultimately depend on a number of factors like:

  • Your local utility rates
  • Local incentives
  • The shading and orientation of your home
  • The number of sun hours you receive

But even if your $15/wk system doesn’t cover 100% of your energy usage, you will still see a dramatic reduction in your monthly electricity bills.  Over time, these savings will only increase as grid electricity prices rise, emissions pollution is taxed, and clean energy from the sun remains consistently free.

In other words, the very act of owning a solar PV installation is an investment that instantly saves you money on Day 1 and delivers increasingly greater returns with each new sunrise.

What does it cost to see if you qualify?

Again – the solar estimate and quote process are 100% free.  You pay nothing to explore your PV installation options.

Moreover, you don’t even need equity in your home or strong credit history.  Alternative financing programs are available to help make your PV installation as affordable as possible.  The sun belongs to everyone, as do the potential savings.

Solar energy is safe, reliable, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly.

Request a free, online solar estimate today to begin taking advantage of all these benefits.

The True Cost of Not Getting a Free Solar Estimate

One of the great hidden truths about America’s renewable energy policies isn’t actually so great or hidden.  The United States has a history of underfunding proven clean, technologies like solar and wind, while giving generous 20:1 subsidies to more entrenched fossil fuel sources.

“The average American is usually unaware of this trend, even though the information is out there, including a solar system special”, says Rich Hessler.  Instead, most people focus on start-up Solyndra-style failures, believing these to be par for the solar industry.

The BP oil spill?  The Exxon Valdez?  Those are just unfortunate accidents – the cost of doing business.

But what about the 2020, 2030, and 2050 renewable energy goals put forth by an increasing number of countries around the world?  Isn’t this proof that the tide is turning?  Even presidential candidate, Mitt Romney, believes solar must play a role in America’s push for energy independence by 2020.

Solar Estimates as the First Step towards Energy Independence?

The tide is indeed turning.  National and global sustainability goals are becoming more mainstream.  But they still depend on top down approaches in which politicians lead the way.  If history is any judge, we probably shouldn’t depend on elected officials and lobbyists to do what needs doing.

Why not, instead, tap into a source that is as rich and as replenishable as the very technologies we should be advancing?  Why not harness the awesome grassroots activism of everyday Americans across the country?

Momentum is already on our side.

Fact 1: Although solar energy has not received nearly the same attention as big oil, the incentives and tax breaks that do exist have already made the technology incredibly affordable.  Not only is solar energy more environmentally friendly, but it’s also increasingly more economical.

Fact 2: Coordination groups like Vote Solar, 350.org, and Green Corps have already laid the groundwork.  There exist platforms at the local, national, and even international level to bring people together and do what our elected officials can’t or won’t.

But as with all movements, the first step begins with you, the individual.  So where do you start?

Picket signs, petitions, and demonstrations are extremely powerful tools in effecting positive change, and we should never underestimate their importance.  Far more powerful, however, is the concerned citizen who actually has solar panels already installed on her home.  That property owner not only talks the talk, but also walks the walk.

I know what you’re thinking.  “But I can’t afford a solar PV installation….”

But how do you know?  Have you ever researched the cost and received a solar estimate?  The cost can be as little as $15/wk.

If you’re like 97% of Americans out there, your solar estimate is probably out of date.  The technology is cheaper now than at any time in history.

Said in a different way, how can any of us advocate solar energy without first embracing the technology ourselves?  And how can we embrace the technology if we haven’t even shopped around?

The Benefits of Receiving a Solar Estimate

To be fair, after receiving a solar estimate, you might reasonably conclude that the technology isn’t right for you.  Perhaps you live in a state without supportive policies.  Maybe your home’s orientation is wrong, or there are simply too many trees.  But since most solar estimates are free, shouldn’t you take 30 minutes out of your life to be 100% sure?

What you discover may even surprise you, given that the overwhelming majority of Americans grossly overestimate the cost of going solar before receiving an official estimate.  Not only could a little background research help reduce or eliminate your electricity bill altogether, but it could also make you a more powerful (and convincing) voice in the fight for sustainability for future generations.

Start today by:

  1. Requesting a solar estimate, entirely online from your computer
  2. Determining if solar makes financial sense for your current home
  3. Connecting with like-minded activists using the links down below

Majority of Americans “Over” Estimate the Cost of Going Solar

According to a recent survey, 97% of Americans grossly overestimate the cost of installing solar panels on their homes.

Respondents of the survey placed their guesses at $20,000 – but these estimates are way off.  In actual fact, most homeowners pay closer to $10,000.  At Rich Hessler Solar, some of our customers pay $1,000 or less after taking advantage of leasing agreements and incentives.

You heard correctly.  Some homeowners actually pay next to nothing for their solar PV installations.

Just to put things in perspective – that’s like estimating that a $1 can of Coke actually costs $20.

Of course, in some high-end New York restaurants, you can come pretty close to paying that kind of cash for carbonated sugar water.  But the vast majority of beverage drinkers know the true value of a can of Coke.

So why do 97% of Americans believe free energy from the sun is expensive?  What is the source of this perception gap?

Part of the problem lies in insufficient marketing of the numerous local, state, and federal solar incentives available to ordinary homeowners like you.  Even if you live in a region like Alaska, you still qualify for a range of rebates and tax credits to help you bring the cost of your solar installation down – way down.

Those savings are amplified if you live in solar hotspots like California and Arizona.  Even New Jersey – a state with moderate sunshine – offers unbelievable incentives that far too few homeowners take the time to explore.

More Companies Are Offering Free Online Solar Estimates

To correct this cost myth, a growing number of solar installers across the country now offer free solar estimates.  These are no-obligation quotes designed to help you assess whether or not going “solar” makes sense for your home or business.

The process is very simple and can be completed within a matter of seconds from the comfort of your home or office computer:

Using an online solar estimate form like this one, you:

  • Input your address to bring up a satellite image of your property
  • Enter a few details about monthly electricity bills and property type (residential vs. commercial – rent vs. own)
  • Supply your preferred contact information

And voila!  You receive your free solar estimate, outlining the potential cost, savings, and ROI of your installation.

On-Site Solar Estimates – Also Free

Those who want to explore their options even further can then request an on-site solar estimate.  In many cases, these are also free of charge, requiring no obligation or commitment on your part.

What’s more, when professional installers come to your home to take measurements, they can also provide you with information about the numerous state and local incentives that can bring your total cost down even further.  Some installers also have special financing and leasing arrangements that eliminate your upfront costs altogether.

Depending on where you live, it’s possible to pay $0 down and still have a lower monthly electricity bill than you do right now?

If 97% of Americans took the time to request a free solar estimate, you would see a tidal wave of PV installation activity across the country.  The economics of solar are impossible to ignore.  And when you factor in the environmental benefits and energy security that you enjoy, it’s hard to imagine why anyone wouldn’t at least explore his or her options.

Take the challenge.  See for yourself.  Request a free solar estimate today.
