We are SO excited to have our new 11 kW solar system! The install was complete a few weeks ago, but we finally have our new digital Puget Sound Energy meter and we're able to feed electricity back onto the grid!

 

Our 54 panel array was installed by Sunergy Systems of Seattle. They did the work from start to finish (no sub-contractors and they handled all the permits and electric company interactions.) We are extremely pleased with the outcome and look forward to producing close to 100% of our power usage from our system.

 

It wasn't cheap, but the 30% tax credit helps (can be carried over for 3 years) and the buy-back from our electric company, since we're plugged back into the grid, will further offset the cost. Our winter electricity usage will outpace our production, but summer should yield a check from the electric company every month! If you'd like more details, don't hesitate to ask us. Check out the photos to view the whole PV system.
