What is a Solar Electrical System?
A Solar Electrical System is a device that generates electricity when exposed to the sunlight. It literally spins the electric meter backwards, providing you free solar electricity day and night!

How does solar power work?
Silicon wafers laminated under non-reflective glass in solar panels collect photons from the sun, and turn this into DC electrical power. This power then flows to an inverter, which converts and transforms it into usable voltage and AC electrical power

What kinds of systems are available?
There are two basic types: bill reduction and blackout protection. SES commercial solar power Los Angeles offers many different solar power system designs including ground and patio mounts, metal, round, and tile roof mounts, and sophisticated commercial building designs

 What is the difference between a Grid-tied and a Grid-tied system with batteries?
A Grid-tied Photovoltaic system produces solar electricity during the day and spins your utility meter backwards for you to use free electricity during the night. A Grid-tied Photovoltaic system with batteries provides the same benefits as the system without batteries but, this system will provide limited electricity if the grid fails. The usual protected circuits are refrigerator, telephone, alarm and entertainment circuits. The system provides enough electrical power to provide emergency lighting and minimal comforts during prolonged electrical outages.

How much do these solar power systems cost?
It depends on your electrical usage and your service area. For example a 3kW solar system in California would remove the majority of a $100.00 per month electrical bill. Winter months are a little less and summer months a little bit more.
A 3kW Grid-tied system costs approximately $15,000 to install after California rebate but before any tax incentives. California solar power rebates depend on your service area and purchasing entity. For example, if you lived in the Southern California Edison, PG&E or SDG&E service area, you would receive a $2.10 a watt rebate. If you live in the LADWP area you would receive $3.99 a watt rebate.
Commercial solar power Los Angeles - If you were to purchase this solar power system as a business, besides the California solar power rebates, you would receive an additional 30% Federal tax credit and accelerated depreciation for State and Federal on the balance. Of course, this would be different for each person and tax bracket, and should be examined by your tax professional...but you get the idea. We're looking at a 3-7 year break-even and a positive cash flow for 30 years. Another benefit here is solar power systems are exempt from property taxes , a good thing to remember when the tax man cometh.

How long do these systems last? What is the warranty on these systems?
Photovoltaic systems have been around for 30 years so far and the original systems are still working just fine. Yet the accelerated testing is giving us numbers like 40-42 years with a 2% per decrease throughout the systems life. The limited warranty is 20 years on the solar modules and 10 years on the balance of system installation.

What is the maintenance  on these systems?
These systems require little to no maintenance. Because there are no moving parts in a solar power system, there is nothing to go wrong. Basically, make sure the modules are clear of bird droppings and dirt and trees aren't shading the system. Also, make sure the system is putting out its proper power during the year by glancing at the metering system from time to time. Other than that... keep smiling every time you see the sun and knowing it is working for you all day long.

How much roof area do these systems take?
Typically, we need 100 square feet for every kilowatt of photovoltaic system required in a location such as Los Angeles, California. Solar Systems also need South, West or East facing roofs that are not shaded between 9am and 5pm. Our solar power systems can be flush or tilt mounted and uses light to generate power, not heat. One of the main side benefits of a photovoltaic system is that the solar power system shades your roof and reduces your air conditioning load by 10% saving you even more money.

Does a solar electrical system have enough power to run all my major appliances ?
A solar electrical system is connected to your electrical main and is designed to offset all power usage within your home or building—this includes air conditioning and all major appliances!

Do I need batteries?
No, the most popular systems sold in California do not have batteries and are designed specifically to lower or eliminate electrical bills only. However, batteries are an option for solar electrical systems designed for blackout protection, so when power goes out the batteries will operate special isolated circuits in your home, and your “power” stays on!

What do I do next if I want to see about getting a system on my house?
To get a twelve-month history, contact your utility supplier’s web site and request a twelve-month history via e-mail.  Then fax or e-mail it to us for a free evaluation

How does the whole process work to get started?
Once we review and analyze your current monthly electricity usage and bills, we talk about your needs based upon your budget and how much savings you would like to receive from solar power, we visit your California home or business, determine structural qualifications , placement, etc., and then we make a system recommendation. It’s that simple!
