Electricity rates historically rise between 4 and 7 percent annually1—and your electricity rates could double in ten years.
The sun, however, never sends you a bill. That means ten years from now, the solar energy you are collecting at your own home will still be free, while the cost of electricity from your utility will have most likely doubled in price.
The amount of money saved with a solar installation varies based on your electricity usage, the cost of electricity in your area, and the solar resource available to you.
