Fort Lauderdale Solar
Fort Lauderdale Solar
The whole Sunshine State enjoys the sun year round and as well as working on your tan or simply enjoying the view those sunshine hours represent a wealth of energy to tap into. Once that process was expensive and inefficient with clunky solar panels that did little more than warm up water. Now however the advances in photovoltaic power sources mean that any building surface or unused ground can be transformed into your own personal power station to cut your utility bills. Nor does switching to solar mean cutting yourself off from the grid and having to be self-sufficient as there are plenty of ways of getting the best from both worlds. So talk to us today about the type and scope of solar power installation that would best benefit you and your business.
The county seat of Broward county is a popular tourist destination in no small part thanks to its estimated 3000 hours of sunshine per year. That’s 3000 hours of power production if you switch to solar and take control of your own utility bills. No matter whether we’re talking about small scale residential or large scale commercial (do you have any idea how much space for solar panels is available in a mall or factory?) solar is the answer to your cost efficiency if you’re living in Fort Lauderdale. And if you’re looking for ‘solar power installation near me’ in Fort Lauderdale well then congratulations because you just found it.

#1 solar company in Fort Lauderdale
With the constant threat of rising electricity prices, it seems that everyone is looking at alternative power generation to cut costs. The advances in materials technology have meant that solar installations are now less intrusive, more effective, and much cheaper than ever before. South Florida Solar Company can help you find the type of solar energy installation that would work best for your business. Talk to us today about how our service could benefit you and your business.
Even with 3000 hours of sunshine there are still those who worry that solar power won’t be enough to cater for their needs. Without knowing your power requirements we can still safely assure you that solar will benefit you enormously, but that a smart approach may be to use a flexible or combined approach. That would mean you get all the benefits of your own solar power station working for you throughout those sunny hours, but still have the back up of stored power and/or the national grid to ensure you never go short.

Commercial
Fort Lauderdale is a bustling business hub and we’re seeing growing numbers of commercial clients who realize that solar power is not just great news for the planet but that ‘sustainable’ energy also means preserving their own business’ future. By making their business as energy efficient as possible and satisfying their own commercial power requirements with their own solar power output these businesses are becoming leaner, more cost efficient, and better equipped to deal with the future. We cater for any size of installation in the Fort Lauderdale area – from a partial power installation in a home that’s intended only to power up pool and outside lights, to a full private solar power station to run industry or commercial interests. We do it all from simple roof panels on your roof to industrial scale systems. That includes the potential for a complete solar farm racked onto dual axis positioning systems that track the sun in the sky by day and reposition throughout the year to make the most of sunlight across the seasons.
Commercial Tax Breaks
Your business already pays tax but one way you can use the tax system to your own advantage is to cash in on the federal tax breaks on offer when you invest in solar power systems. Yes you read that right. The Investment Tax Credit (ITC) is a federal solar tax incentive that means you can claim back your solar power investment against the tax you pay. Typically that’s worth the equivalent of nearly a third off the cost of new solar systems. Talk to us to find out more about making your future business not only energy efficient, but tax efficient too. When you look around our city of Fort Lauderdale, you may have noticed that solar energy is not only being found on single family homes, it’s starting to take over commercial buildings as well. Everything from schools to businesses, grocery stores and large warehouses. All across South Florida we have been providing clients with our top rated commercial solar panel installations. We have the experience and equipment to take on large scale projects like this.
Great for your pocket
With tax breaks on purchasing solar, and also on the resale value of your house if you sell residential property with an increase in value thanks to sustainable energy improvements there are lots of ways to save money through solar. Solar units have now been working continuously for 40 years or more and we’re only starting to see the long-term benefits of investing today to bring down those dreaded utility bills.
You may have heard that solar panels can save money, but exactly how so? Many people fear that the upfront installation cost is too high and they will never make a good return on investment, but we’re here to assure you that is far from the case. The average payback period is 5 to 8 years, and your solar system should last you 20 to 30 years if it is installed correctly.
If you generate your own electricity and use it on-site, you will not have to buy as much energy from the grid and thus pay less money for your electric bill. We have many clients that have cut out their electric costs completely and get all their necessary energy provided from solar panels. When a solar energy system produces excess energy, the meter will spin in reverse. We offer net metering, which means that when your panels are producing more energy than you are using, you can sell that power back to the grid and receive a credit. This only means more savings for you!
“But what if the sun doesn’t shine today?” people ask. Your solar system can be tied to the grid so you effectively have the national power system as your back up and by a clever system called net metering, you can deliver your solar power back into the national system for others to use. Until now that hasn’t been available to citizens of the Sunshine State as the utility companies have resisted it but the regulations on third-party power production are already starting to change and the way we pay for power is changing with them.
When it comes to home improvement, a solar panel installation is one of the best projects to add to a home. Once you’ve contacted us for alternative energy solutions, we encourage you to look into a fence company Fort Lauderdale to add some extra privacy to your home. Our friends over at Fort Lauderdale Fence Contractors have everything you need to complete the total renovation of your home and instantly increase it’s value!
Great for the planet
Let’s not forget as well that solar power is a truly sustainable renewable power source. You don’t have to be a hippy to appreciate that. Fossil fuels are fast losing investment as their time is up. Going solar helps future proof you and your business against hikes in fuel prices if the subsidies dry up and the costs rise. Solar is clean and green. It doesn’t smell or produce greenhouse gasses. That’s a message that you may feel good about telling your kids (and theirs) but it’s also a message that is gaining ground with large numbers of your customers and employees. Which makes going solar in Fort Lauderdale a smart move in more ways than one.
