Although this technology has been readily available for more than 35 years, the constant strive for higher capacity, efficiency, & afordability has made solar power accessible to us all. More and More, smart homeowners and businesses are switching over to clean sun power.
Federal & State incentives, rebates, and grants are putting us in the position of utilizing this great resource on a larger scale. The freedom from high utility bills is just one financial benefit of Solar power. There is no greater return on investment in our current market and no other asset will leave such a positive legacy for generations to come.
Engineers and Innovators are always working on improvements. With this in mind, Payneless Energy is continually pursuing new technologies and educating ourselves to install these systems and bring you the best available products and power.
Architectural Integration
More often than not, people mount solar panels on their roof or on poles on their property. While these applications are proven to be effective, they are not your only options. You should also consider Architectural Integration, which means framing your PV system as a fixed part of your house or other building/structure on your property.
The beautiful thing about architecturally integrating your system is its dual functionality. For instance, a pergola could be serving the purpose of both shading and creating the framework for solar electric generation. Or an awning, as well as keeping your entrance dry and shaded, could be generating electricity.
This type of application is not for everybody, but if you have had plans for building a structure on your property or an addition onto your house, we have an architectural designer on staff to propose integrative solutions!
Solar Hot Water/Heat
Individuals and communities have been effectively taking advantage of this natural heat gain for centuries around the world. Like solar electric and wind power, the spotlight was stolen from this technology when natural gas was discovered.
We are now revisiting solar thermal as a viable option for your hot water needs.
This is arguably the cheapest and easiest way to start incorporating clean energy into your home or business
Agricultural Solutions
The cost of small farming has risen sharply while large conglomerate companies flood the market with mass produced, genetically modified, non-local products. This makes it hard for the small farmer to compete.
By installing remote watering, irrigation and fencing farmers can greatly reduce their costs. More individuals are interested in not only shopping locally, but responsibly as well. Farmers installing these systems can promote themselves as being both local and sustainable!
