Part of what we at Venture Solar do best is to provide you with a thorough analysis of your site and help you determine your solar energy potential. Basically, a solar power system is designed considering two important factors – the amount of space that you have available for installing solar panels and the amount of electricity you consume annually. Other factors, like shading analysis and the efficiency of the solar panels and inverters you purchase also come into play. The slope of your roof and whether your or your neighbors have trees that might interfere with your PV (photovoltaic) panel efficiency are also factors we look for. The bottom line is that we work with you to analyze your daily energy use over the prior year and to thoroughly evaluate your home or business to determine your solar energy potential.
Armed with the electricity usage information taken from your utility bills, our local experts at Venture Solar can determine about how big of a solar photovoltaic system would be required to offset 100% of your annual usage. To install a solar energy system on the roof of your home or business, we have to determine the amount of viable roof space you have. Vents, chimneys, and dormers are factors that help us determine the maximum number of solar panels that can be installed in order to determine how much energy you can generate.
Also critical, Venture Home Solar can help you decide whether you want to own your solar system or take advantage of one of several leasing options, including entering into a Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) that requires little or no upfront costs and allows you to purchase power generated by your system from a solar company or utility that pays for and installs your system.
