Consumers Get the "Green" Light from the Government to Install Solar Power Systems

In the wake of one of the most serious energy crunches our country has faced, consumers are increasingly committed to finding a long term solution to their energy costs. Many are taking a serious look at green options for powering their homes and businesses. According to Wise Power Systems president, Bill Rawheiser, one attractive option is solar energy.

"Because of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, there has never been a better time to consider solar energy," assures Bill Rawheiser. Bill Rawheiser explains that the U.S. Treasury will pay a 30% cash grant toward the cost of any new solar power installation begun in 2010. This 30% grant is particularly generous in that it not only includes the cost of solar energy system components, but also additional installation costs such as labor, permits, and subcontracting and construction services related to the installment.

Bill Rawheiser explains that applying for the grant involves completing a six page application that can be found online at http://www.treas.gov/recovery/docs/Application.pdf. Wise Power Systems can help its customers accurately complete the application to secure the 30% grant.

The financial benefits of a solar energy powered home or office extend beyond the grant. Home owners will enjoy generating no-cost electric for their home many years beyond the recovery of the initial cost of the installation. In addition, the market value of a utility independent home can significantly increase. In fact Appraisal Journal, a trade magazine for real estate evaluators, purports that a home's value increases $20 for every $1 reduction of utility bills.

Wise Power System is an alternative energy installation company dedicated to encouraging home and business owners to invest in their own renewable energy systems. Wise is committed to providing its clients with quality systems customized to meet their energy needs and fit their budgets.
