We plan to get an electric vehicle (EV) in the next few years. Should we plan for that now?

Each case should be looked at differently and a lot will be changing in the coming years. Our take is that if the electric vehicle (EV) is not on order then you might end up paying for a lot more solar than you need at the moment.

 

Is it true that we can get a check back from the utility when we overproduce from our solar installation?

We get this question quite often. Most utilities offer a very attractive Net Metering program where you are allowed to ‘bank’ extra solar production – as opposed to receiving a check for it.

 

What solar panels should I choose?
