Clear Sky Solar

We leverage the rebates for going solar, this way it will cost nothing to get started. Essentially, you are just switching utility companies.

The best place for a solar array will be a south-facing area of your property with very little obstruction. That means no tall buildings or trees in the way and no shade from chimneys or neighboring houses to block the sun’s rays. East- and west-facing properties with little to moderate shading can also gain the benefits of switching to solar. Don’t despair if your property doesn’t fit this criteria on paper. Only a trained solar panel installer will be able to assess your property to know for sure.

If you need a new roof BEFORE we install the system we can do that for you and include that reroof into the deal. If you need a new roof AFTER the install, we will take the system down and reinstall it after the new roof is complete- All at no cost

We are located in Scottsdale, Arizona.

If spacing permits, we can install them on the ground. This is referred to as a ground mount.

Our panels look like Flatscreen LG Tv's. Very good looking panels with a low profile stream look.

Thousands!! Average customer is saving over $1,200 their first year!! APS/SRP increase their rates by 5% each year- WIth us, there is not yearly increase. Your bill will never increase

3 Options- Option 1- A one page transfer to the new homeowner. They then will be able to take advantage of the power savings, you would be back paying the power company. Option 2- Take the system with you to your new residence (permitting the roof is qualified for solar) Option 3- We take the system down and recycle it (at no cost).

Thanks to new solar loans and solar leasing programs, middle class Americans are saving the most money every month by switching to solar energy. Data from a Center for American Progress study shows that rooftop solar has been exploding in all states in neighborhoods with median incomes between $40,000–$90,000. That’s because middle class families spend a large portion of their monthly budget on electricity. By lowering that expense, or at least getting it to a low, predictable amount each month, families can make a big difference in their savings.

Everyone loves saving money. A U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development study discovered that for every $1,000 you save in electric costs thanks to a solar array every year, you gain an additional $20,000 in property value.

Installing your solar array may take two to a few hours, depending on the size of your solar array, your mounting choice, and your property. Your solar provider will not have to rewire your house as all the wiring stays exactly the same. Your new solar system will consist of a few additional parts to your existing electricity system: your solar panels, the inverter, and your new two-way utility meter.

While you can certainly take the DIY route and install solar panels on your property all on your own, you’ll want the trusted advice of a knowledgeable electrician and the insider knowledge of a seasoned PV professional. They’ll be able to determine the best placement for your solar panels, apply for the right permits, and do what they do best so you don’t have to worry (or get hurt!)

If anything, solar panels will protect your roof from damage and may even keep your home cooler. Ask to check out all the different solar mounting options you can choose from. Each method aims to do as little damage to your roof as possible.

Solar panels are easier to maintain than your property’s HVAC, appliances, and maybe even your cell phone. That’s because solar panels have zero moving parts to break. The most you’ll have to do to maintain your solar panels is make sure they’re free of dust, pollen, leaves, and other debris. Whatever’s obstructing your panels will make for less efficient energy production. You’ll also need to trim branches that may get in the way of your solar panels and dust off heavy snow. That’s not so hard, right?

Your solar array will still work when it’s cloudy outside because ambient light and UV light still make it through to your solar panels to generate electricity. Your solar array may not be as effective during an overcast day as it is during a bright day without clouds, but it will still power your home or business. Germany, which boasts about as many sunny days as Alaska, now gets 85% of their energy from renewables including solar power.

If you happen to have a home or business improvement fund, owning your own solar array is the way to go. The price of installation is low, you’ll qualify for tax incentives and rebates, you’ll enjoy lower electricity bills, and your property value will improve. While you can definitely pay for your solar installation up front, most home and business owners don’t have that kind of cash sitting around. Go with a solar loan and you’ll be able to finance your own solar system and own it by making monthly payments over time. You’ll enjoy all the benefits of solar energy while you pay your loan off. Choose a solar lease, or a power purchase agreement (PPA), and you’ll be able to make the switch to solar with little or zero money down. Just partner with a trusted solar provider, they’ll take on all the upfront costs of installation, and you’ll enjoy lower electricity bills every month. You’ll score a low fixed electricity rate and take on zero of the expenses.

Even though the price of solar panels and the cost of installing a solar array have never been lower, you may still qualify for extra rebates or incentives to make the total investment as low as possible for your home or business. We will check for the best deals in your area.

Your solar panels will start generating usable energy for your property the day they’re installed. Depending on when you receive your electric bill, you could start noticing lower bills the very first month.

Right now you don’t have any control over the electricity rate your utility company charges. And trends show that electricity rates will continue to rise. When you install solar panels on your property, you’ll be generating more electricity than you use from the utility company at the price of free. Then you’ll also generate more than enough to sell back to the utility company as credits to further lower your monthly bills. No more surprise electricity bills to tank your budget again.

You know how you have an electric meter on your property to record how much energy your home or business uses every month? When you switch to solar energy, you’ll have an electric meter that works both ways: It will show the utility company how much energy you consume when your solar panels aren’t generating electricity (like at night). It will show how much energy your solar panels generated during the day See, your solar panels will produce a lot of energy during the day when the sun’s the strongest. You most likely won’t use all this solar-generated power. Your excess solar energy will feed back to the grid and help supply power for the utility company. Your utility company will pay for your solar-generated electricity by giving you credits to lower your monthly electricity bill.

In reality, you probably won’t want to go off grid. The practice is known as “islanding”, or when you connect your solar array to batteries so you’ll be able to power your home or business entirely on solar energy instead of using the utility company for power. The thing is, this practice is incredibly expensive and inefficient for most people. Batteries are not only expensive, they’re not as technically developed as solar panels (read: they clunk up the operation). They also need to be maintained and replaced routinely. Most solar adopters choose to stay on the grid out of convenience and money-saving. When you stay connected to the grid, you’ll be able to generate credits with the electric company to lower the price of your bills. This practice is known as net metering.

Your solar panels don’t need sunshine, per se, to generate electricity as much as they need direct, unobstructed access to the sun’s UV rays. Similar to how your skin still tans when it’s overcast outside, your solar panels will still generate electricity during cloudy, rainy, or snowy days — they just won’t produce as much energy as they do during clear days. Solar panels do not generate electricity at night since the sun’s not out. This is when staying connected to the power grid comes in handy as you’ll still have electricity to Netflix and chill.

The only time your solar panels stop generating electricity is when the sun’s not out. That means at night and during eclipses. The sun is constant. It rises and sets pretty routinely. It’s more predictable and reliable than power plants, which often experience outages several thousand times every year. Maybe that’s why the U.S. Department of Defense pledged to purchase 3 gigawatts of clean energy for its bases by 2025. As of 2016, they’re on track to meet that goal. That’s renewable energy contributing power equivalent to nearly six coal plants! This kind of recommendation seems to give people more trust in clean energy like solar power. According to the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA): There are currently more than 1.5 million residential solar systems in the U.S. One consumer makes the switch to residential solar every 90 seconds Solar energy isn’t a passing fad. It’s the key to a future of lower electricity bills and a cleaner environment.

Solar panels are made of highly excitable, conductive materials. When the sun’s rays hit the solar panels, the reaction creates direct current (DC) electricity. Since most homes and businesses use alternating current (AC) electricity, your solar-generated DC energy will pass through an inverter to become AC electricity. Then it flows through your property’s wiring and behaves just like the power you’ve been using your whole life.
