At Project Solar, we set out to find the best panels for ROI by reviewing and balancing three main categories: build quality, performance, and aesthetics. We first started with top-tier, black-on-black panels with full 25-year warranties, and then we optimized for the lowest price per watt.
Whether you are interested in time-of-use or back-up storage, Enphase offers the best-performing, most reliable solar battery on the market right now. Here, we'll compare the Tesla Powerwall and the Enphase IQ Battery based on pricing, efficiency, charging, customer support, depth of discharge, battery type, warranties, and monitoring.
Solar has proven itself to be the most cost-efficient energy generator; its biggest problem is not the cost to produce the energy but what to do with the energy at the time of production. This is why batteries and energy storage are currently hot topics of conversation.
While a DIY system’s savings are attractive, we recognize that not everyone wants to (or is able to) invest the time and effort required to complete a DIY solar installation. For this reason, Project Solar also offers full-service installation, which is actually the route 90% of our customers take. To make our full-service installations possible, we have created a network of vetted installers that stretches across the United States.
Panel and microinverter replacements are rare, but Project Solar is here to help you navigate warranties and efficiently replace damaged or defective solar equipment.
It may be hard to tell if solar panels are worth it—are they just today’s fad or something that you'll regret not having tomorrow? As you consider solar energy’s federal tax incentives, green benefits, impressively high ROI, and solid warranties, you'll understand why so many people are deciding that solar is right for them right now.
According to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) report, the average price for rooftop solar is $3.95/watt. Project Solar comes in at an average price of$2/watt (fully installed, before incentives), making our offer nearly HALF the price.
The federal government has been interested in solar since the 70s, and if you haven't heard yet, they want to pay for 30% of your home solar build-out through the Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC). It's an amazing offer that unfortunately won't last forever.
For most people, going solar is a serious investment even at our low prices. Expecting equipment to work for its full warranty period is a basic right of the customer, and we get that. From the onset, we design your solar project with the best Tier 1 solar equipment.
Every solar build is its own mini project. There are a lot of moving pieces and sticking points along the way. We've developed a process to get your system designed, permitted, and built in as little as 4 weeks (depending on city permitting).
Net meteringis a common buzzword in the solar industry that very few consumers actually understand. In short, it is the credit your utility company gives you for the solar power you don't immediately use at your own house/property.
A solar install consists of two parts: the planning of the system design and the physical labor.
Planning your system used to require a deep understanding of volts, amps, watts, circuits, solar azimuths, photovoltaic sun potential, hardware and electrical components, wiring, etc.
Fortunately, the solar industry has come a long way.
