'Tis the Season for Solar Energy! Amidst rising energy prices, Anne Arundel County residents can get a solar energy system for half price or even free.
May 7, 2008, Pasadena, Maryland: It's no secret that the Green movement has arrived: hybrid gas/electric cars, organic food stores and supermarket sections, chemical-free everything from dish detergent to dog food. But solar energy for the home? Here in Anne Arundel County..how cost-effective is it really? How about half-price, or even free! According to Roger Perry, owner of Solar Energy Services, Inc. and a 30-year solar industry veteran, a family of four living in Maryland would normally pay around $8000 for a solar domestic hot water system. Currently, little more than half of this is paid for by combined financial incentives from the State of Maryland and the federal government. Perry states, "This solar system would provide approximately 75% of a family's annual hot water and pay for itself in as little as 5 - 7 years." Furthermore, Anne Arundel County residents can credit the remaining balance towards their Property Tax Bill. This basically translates to a free solar hot water system for hundreds of homes in Anne Arundel County. When it comes to solar energy systems, there are basically two types for the residence: thermal (hot water and heating), and P.V. (solar electric). P.V. is an extremely long-term investment that can take a lifetime to pay for itself. However, solar domestic hot water is a zero-risk, money-back-guaranteed carbon-free step on the way to energy independency.
