What can we do to catch this Green Bond Issue ? Now is a good opportunity to invest solar power system in Australia, cost dropped and issue comes . Call us for total solution of On-Grid solar power system / Off-Grid solar power system and door to door services to Australia on our website.Clean Energy Finance Corporation invests $10 million in green bond issue An Australia-first climate bond is set to boost investment in the nation’s rapidly growing solar energy market.The Clean Energy Finance Corporation (CEFC) has invested $10 million in a $90.9 million green bond issue by FlexiGroup Ltd. Rooftop solar makes up a large proportion of the investment, with a smaller allocation for small-scale energy storage.Green or climate bonds finance a range of renewable energy projects. This is the first time small-scale batteries are included in the Australian green bond market. Fast-growing solar storage market perfect for green bonds Australia’s home solar battery market has lagged behind the growth of solar panels. Yet battery prices are rapidly falling.Data from Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF) shows nearly three-quarters of Australia’s rooftop solar capacity will include battery storage by mid-century.By 2050 Australia will have more than 6 million rooftop solar power systems installed. Close to 4.5 million of these will also feature small-scale solar batteries.BNEF says battery prices will also fall by more than 50 per cent  through to 2030. Australia’s solar storage market could then become a $1.7 trillion industry. How green bonds work According to Gilbert & Tobin, green bonds create a large pool of capital to fund environmentally responsible projects.They operate like traditional bonds, but with a focus on eco-friendly outcomes.The CEFC notes that institutional investors in Australia increasingly want to fund carbon reduction assets like solar farms. The new climate bond will help them develop ‘green’ portfolios to reduce Australia’s carbon footprint. This is therefore critically important. The Climate Council’s ‘expert statement’ backed by 28 climate and energy experts states Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions are rising.   The emergence of green bonds around the world   Data reported by Gilbert & Tobin shows huge growth in the global green bond market.It has grown from less than $5 billion in 2010 to more than $150 billion in 2017 and 2018. Climate Bonds Initiatives (CBI) data predicts it will reach $351 billion this year.National Australia Bank was the first Australian bank to launch both an offshore green bond in March 2017 and a climate bond in 2014.FlexiGroup Ltd issued Australia’s first asset-backed green bond in 2016.The Australian Government owns the CEFC, which mobilises capital investment in renewable energy. The CEFC has committed $489 million to 11 bond issuances since it began in 2013.From: energymatters.com.au

In recent years, as the world importance for the photovoltaic industry, solar power systems have been widely utilized in the life. But what should happen to such a high-tech thing? The following Future Green Technology Co., Ltd. summarized the common faults and solutions for photovoltaic power generation systems for everyone, and hopes to help everyone. Frequently asked questions when debugging off-grid systems: First, the inverter LCD is not displayed Reason analysis: (1) The battery voltage is not enough. When the battery is just shipped from the factory, it is usually fully charged, but if the battery is not used for a long time, it will be slowly discharged (self-discharge). Off-grid system voltages are 12V, 24V, 48V, 96V, etc. Some applications require multiple batteries in series to meet the system voltage. If the connection cable is not done well, the battery voltage will be insufficient. (2) The battery terminals are reversed. The battery terminals have positive and negative poles, generally red for the positive pole and black for the negative pole. (3) The DC switch is not closed or the switch is faulty. Solution: (1) If the battery voltage is not enough, the system can't work, the solar energy can't charge the battery, go to another place to charge the battery to more than 30%. (2) If the problem is the line pressure profile measurements of various electrical battery voltage with a multi-meter. When the voltage is normal, the total voltage is the sum of the voltages of each battery. If there is no voltage, check whether the DC switch, terminal block, cable connector, etc. are normal. (3) If the battery voltage is normal, the wiring is normal, the switch is also turned on, and the inverter is still not displayed, it may be that the inverter has failed, and the manufacturer should be notified for maintenance. Second, the battery cannot be charged Possible reasons: ( 1 ) Component reasons: The component voltage is not enough, the sunlight is low, and the components and DC cable are not well wired. ( 2 ) The battery circuit wiring is not good. ( 3 ) The battery is fully charged and reaches the highest voltage. Solution: ( 1 ) Check whether the DC switch, terminal block, cable connector, component, battery, etc. are normal. If there are multiple components, separate the tests separately. ( 2 ) When the battery reaches full charge , it can't be recharged, but the voltage is different when different batteries are fully charged. For example, the battery with rated voltage is 12V. When the battery is fully charged, the voltage is between 12.8~13.5V. The specific gravity of the electrolyte when the battery is fully charged. The maximum pressure limit should be adjusted according to the model of the battery. (3) Input Overcurrent: battery charging current is generally 0.1C-0.2C, the maximum does not exceed 0.3C, and for example, a lead-acid battery section 12V200AH, the charging current is generally between 20A to 40A, the maximum should not exceed 60A. Assembly to the power controller and the power mate. ( 4 ) Input overvoltage: The input voltage of the component is too high, check the voltage of the panel. If it is high, the possible reason is that the number of strings in the panel is too large, and the number of strings in the panel is reduced. Third, the inverter shows overload or cannot start Possible reason: ( 1 ) Inverter overload: The inverter overload exceeds the time range, the load power exceeds the maximum value, and the load is adjusted. ( 2 ) Battery overload: The discharge current is generally 0.2C-0.3C , the maximum does not exceed 0.5C , 1 section 12V200AH lead-acid battery, the maximum output power does not exceed 2400W , different manufacturers, different models, the specific values are different . (3) The load is a load elevator or the like can not be directly connected to the output of the inverter, because the elevator during lowering, reverse the motor will produce a counter electromotive force when entering the inverter, the inverter is damaged. If an off-grid system is necessary, it is recommended to add a frequency converter between the inverter and the elevator motor. ( 4 ) Inductive load starting power is too large. Solution: The rated power of the load is lower than the inverter power, and the peak power of the load cannot be greater than 1.5 times the rated power of the inverter. Battery common problems: Short circuit phenomenon and cause: The short circuit of the lead-acid battery refers to the connection of the positive and negative electrodes inside the lead-acid battery. The short circuit phenomenon of lead-acid batteries is mainly manifested in the following aspects: The open circuit voltage is low and the closed circuit voltage (discharge) quickly reaches the termination voltage. When a large current is discharged, the terminal voltage drops rapidly to zero. When the circuit is open, the electrolyte density is very low, and the electrolyte may freeze in a low temperature environment. When charging, the voltage rises very slowly and remains low (sometimes reduced to zero). When charging, the temperature of the electrolyte rises very quickly. When charging, the electrolyte density rises slowly or almost unchanged. Do not take bubbles or gas when charging. These are the solar power generation system on common problems and solutions, I hope for your help, you have if there are problems and needs in this area, please contact us Future Green Technology Co., Ltd.

In recent years, Disney has continued to expand its renewable energy deployment and is committed to the next environmental management milestone, hoping to significantly reduce carbon emissions by 2020, reducing global greenhouse gas emissions by 50% compared to 2012. In order to achieve the 2020 carbon reduction target, Disneyland in various countries is also in full swing to build renewable energy facilities. Hong Kong Disneyland Hong Kong Disneyland said it has begun to build the largest photovoltaic power generation system in Hong Kong. The park will install more than 4,500 solar panels on the roof of 14 buildings in the resort, while the total area equal to a standard football field. The total power generation will be expected to be as high as 1.86 million kWh, equivalent to one year's electricity consumption of 564 three-person households. The project has two periods and will be completed by the end of December 2019. Among the eight buildings in the first phase, the buildings with the largest number of solar panels installed in a single location are the rooftops of the “small world” of amusement facilities, with more than 1,190 solar panels. The second phase of the plan (September to December) will be installed on the roof of six buildings in the resort, including the construction of amusement facilities, with an additional installation of more than 1,000 solar panels. It is expected that after the completion of the project, one third of the electrical energy will be provided. . Through this project, the generated electricity will be directly transferred to the public power grid. It is expected that Hong Kong Disneyland and solar panel supplier can share an additional income of approximately HK$5 million per year. Hong Kong Disneyland will use the funds to pay for project development costs, system maintenance and other environmental projects. The head of the Hong Kong Disneyland said that the project uses a new wireless real-time monitoring system, through the mobile phone program, each online solar panel can be independently monitored on-line for maximum performance. Shanghai Disney: Recycling waste heat for heating and cooling Shanghai Disneyland opened in 2015. The park introduced distributed energy technology, turning waste heat into the power and providing to fairy tale scenes and rides. Providing energy for Shanghai Disneyland is a natural gas “triple supply” energy station that is separated from the park by a road. This 20,000 square meter building is a “comprehensive processing plant” that uses pipe network systems and cables to provide electricity, steam and air conditioning for use in the covered area. Disney has four pipes of steam, cold air, hot water and electricity from the energy station across the road. It uses part of the waste heat from the power station to make steam for use in some electric games that require compressed air. Another part of waste heat is used to heating water, transport to the kitchen, hotel; and waste heat was used by the central air conditioning using bromide technology to chemical reaction for cooling. It is known that after the introduction of distributed energy technology in Shanghai Disneyland, the energy utilization rate will reach 80% or more, which is about 1 times higher than the traditional model. At the same time, the “triple supply” energy station can save 20,000 tons of standard coal and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about 75,000 tons per year. Disneyland Paris: First wastewater treatment and recycling system With the idea of “renovating the water equipment of the park directly with its smaller rainwater recycling system”, Disneyland built a wastewater treatment and recycling system in the park in 2013, becoming the first installation park in Europe. The system produces 1,389 tons of reclaimed water per minute. Water will be used to clean streets, waterways for recreational facilities, roadside plant irrigation and cooling pools for power plants. The wastewater treatment plant has saved 1.1 million cubic meters of water, equivalent to the annual water consumption of 7,384 households in France. In 2017, Disneyland Paris used 2,000 meters of underground geothermal energy to successfully provide energy for two theme parks and restaurants, allowing the water temperature of lagoon up to 85 ° C. It can produce 20GWh of energy per year with zero carbon, reducing the carbon footprint of Paris Paradise. In 2019, Disneyland Paris announced a series of environmental protection initiatives that will replace plastic straws with fully biodegradable paper straws, which are only available upon request by customers. The store will stop offering free plastic bags and the main raw material for sale will be recycled plastics Bags; many hotels in the park stop providing small bottles of shower gel and shampoo in the bathroom of the room, and use large bottles that can be filled multiple times. Disneyland Paris also attaches great importance to the development of solar projects. At present, it has proposed plans to install solar panels in a park covering an area of about 22 square kilometers. If the solar projects are completed on schedule, solar power can also meet the increasing demand for electricity in Paris. After the expansion of the park in 2002, the demand for electricity and natural gas increased by 16.7% and 28.1% respectively compared with 2001. With the arrival of the new park in 2025, more power sources will be needed afterwards. The higher efficiency of solar photovoltaic, the better the paradise will be. Orlando Disney: Developing large-scale solar installations Opened in Florida in 1971, the Orlando Disney Resort is the world's largest Disney resort and currently has four theme parks – the Future World, the Animal Kingdom, the Hollywood Studios, and the Magic Kingdom. The Walt Disney Company has reached an agreement with solar energy company, Origis Energy USA, to build 50MW solar equipment at the Orlando Disney Resort, which is expected to power two theme parks. The solar facility will be built around the animal kingdom, covering 270 acres and installing 518,000 pcs of solar panels. It is expected to reduce emissions of 57,000 tons of greenhouse gases, equivalent to 9,300 vehicles. The new solar power plant is also in line with the construction of the Disney Animal Kingdom, the first park to protect animals and protect the planet. This equipment is not the first solar photovoltaic facility in Disneyland, Florida. As early as April 2016, it had built 5MW and about 48,000 solar panels in the future world theme park, which is the largest Mickey pattern in earth surface. The development and construction of this 50MW solar power station will further provide clean energy for the Orlando Disneyland. Tokyo Disney: Powered by roof solar panels in the park Tokyo Disneyland has seven themed areas with 35 wonderful performances. The common feature is that “everything is active and there is a lot of sound”. What makes it possible is the "electronic sound action device" developed by Japan itself. Driven by such a device, the total number of 2,000 or more puppets and animals in the park is enough to achieve a real degree of sham. The power of these electronic sound action devices comes from the solar panels on the roof of the park. These devices also supply power for the night light parade. Tokyo Disneyland has installed a total of 600KW solar energy on the roof of 8 buildings. It is worth mentioning that at the beginning of the construction, Tokyo Disneyland has arranged more than 300,000 trees in the park. 24% (200,000 square meters) of the park is a tree planting green. Disneyland, California: laying more than 1,400 solar panels In 2016, Disneyland, Calif., said it plans to install solar panels on the roof of the campus buildings. Currently, the park has used solar energy to supply electricity. A total of more than 1,400 solar panels have been installed at the Disneyland Park in California. The solar array covers a total of 40,000 square feet and generates enough electricity to power 100 homes in the Anaheim area. Editor: FGET solar

Is solar power supply in China's cities cheaper than grid power? Recent studies have shown that distributed solar energy can provide lower electricity prices than fossil energy generation in many cities in China. Although solar energy is more low-carbon, it is often considered more expensive than fossil energy. However, according to a recently published study, in many cities in China, solar energy can provide lower electricity prices than fossil fuels without subsidies. The research team believes that with the rapid growth of China's electricity demand and the advancement of clean energy technologies, renewable energy investment will become more attractive. However, some experts and enterprise power users believe that the practical obstacles facing solar power still need to be solved. Cheaper solar energy Grid parity – the unsubsidized total cost of renewable energy is equal to the cost of fossil fuels, even lower than the cost of fossil fuels – is considered a key turning point in renewable energy expansion, marking a theoretically more investment flow to clean energy and technology. According to the latest research published in the journal Nature and Energy, the research team of the Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden calculated the power generation price of megawatt-scale distributed photovoltaic power generation projects in 344 cities in China from the user side and the power generation side, respectively. The electricity price of the urban grid is compared with the local desulfurized coal price (that is, the electricity price sold by the coal-fired power company to the grid company). Among them, the urban grid electricity price is the user side electricity price, including power generation cost, transmission and distribution cost, enterprise profit, government funds, and surcharges; the power generation side electricity price includes power generation cost and power plant profit rate. The study found that even in the absence of state subsidies (and their expected distortions), on the user side, the total solar cost of all 344 research cities is lower than the city's electricity price; In 76 cities (22%), solar power generation prices are flat or lower than coal-fired power plants. Studies have shown that investments in renewable energy will not only be “moral choices” for climate and environmental concerns, but also for legitimate considerations of economic interest. The study also pointed out that there are differences in price competitiveness between different cities, mainly due to the solar radiation level of each city, the on-grid price of desulfurization coal-fired coal, the price of the electricity market and the investment cost of photovoltaic system. However, in addition to technical factors, there are still many objective conditions that restrict the competitiveness of solar power generation in the electricity market. Tao Ye, deputy director of the Renewable Energy Development Center of the Energy Research Institute of the National Development and Reform Commission, believes that some of the conditions in the theoretical economic measurement are uncertain. Under the current power market environment, coal-fired power and renewable energy have competition in the acquisition of market space, and coal-fired power has the ability to further reduce the price of online. In addition, non-technical costs such as land and roof acquisition may also increase photovoltaic power generation costs. Support policies to promote photovoltaic development The initial goal of China's solar energy industry development is mainly to face the rural areas and popularize power supply and poverty alleviation in remote areas. After 30 years of development, today's solar energy industry in China has grown to more than double the photovoltaic panels of any other country. The rapid decline in marginal cost is largely due to government support policies for the photovoltaic industry. According to statistics, since 2000, the Chinese government has introduced more than 100 policies to support the photovoltaic industry. For example, in 2013 and 2014, the State Grid and the National Energy Administration introduced support policies for distributed solar energy, which cleared some of the institutional barriers for the generation and development of small-scale solar power generators. At the same time, the subsidy policy for photovoltaic power generation is also very powerful: for centralized photovoltaic power plants, the part of the on-grid electricity price higher than the coal-fired electricity price is subsidized by the national renewable energy development fund, and the distributed electricity is fully charged. subsidy. With the support of substantial financial subsidies, photovoltaic power generation has achieved a surge in installed capacity in a shorter period of time. In 2011, China's cumulative PV installed capacity was 6.02GW, and the cumulative installed capacity in 2014 was 26.52GW. By the end of 2018, the cumulative installed capacity has exceeded 170GW, of which distributed PV installed accounts for about 29%. However, continuous government subsidies have also created a market of “excessive prosperity”, and speculators who have spawned “fraud subsidies” in the early days have entered the photovoltaic industry. In 2018, under the background of the central renewable energy power generation subsidy exceeding 100 billion yuan, the Chinese government has greatly reduced the subsidies to the solar industry, which has brought a great shock to the industry, but this shock has also promoted the independence of the industry. growing up. Tao Ye said, “20% of the new PV projects in 2019 achieved parity or low prices, and this target is expected to exceed 35% in 2020”. With the large-scale centralized solar power project in the western region facing a difficult situation, the construction of distributed photovoltaic projects closer to the power consumption center in the developed eastern region has become a new trend. In 2017 alone, China's new distributed PV installations reached 19.44GW, the sum of the previous three years. Realistic bottleneck The volatility and instability of renewable energy generation is considered to be one of the bottlenecks that have long plagued the industry. However, Zhang Shuwei, director of the Zall's Environment (Beijing) Research Center and chief energy economist, believes that this is not the reason why the grid refuses to consume renewable energy, because the development of renewable energy has never been for system balance purposes, but to reduce emissions; In addition, the role of the grid is to deal with various fluctuations and uncertainties. The key to the problem is whether the solution is more cost-effective and whether it is the lowest cost option. Land resources are another bottleneck limiting the expansion of the solar industry. Therefore, distributed photovoltaic projects using rooftop resources are considered to have great potential and can save a lot of cost for enterprises, especially for power-hungry technology parks, industrial enterprises, and data centers with high power consumption in recent years. Wait. However, in reality, it is not smooth to promote rooftop photovoltaic power generation due to policy influence. For example, the property rights of Chinese urban roofs are often unclear, and enterprises have difficulty in obtaining roof resources. Another obstacle to limiting the development of renewable energy generation is the lack of voice for business users. Traditionally, companies using electricity that is uniformly delivered by grid companies cannot determine the source of electricity themselves.

The system on your home can be refreshing, but with every new technology, it comes with new ways to ensure maintenance. While it can be exciting to save money and provide a clean source of energy for you and your family, how much does it cost to maintain these systems? Once solar panels are installed, there are a couple of factors to consider and some of them can be easily performed on their own or outsourced to professionals. Over the years, as solar panels are becoming more popular, the cost of maintaining solar panels has dropped significantly due to a better understanding of energy-generating panels. The general maintenance of the solar panels is actually quite low and this is due to a couple of factors: First, solar panels don't have many moving parts that reduce the risk of breakage and cracks and general wear and tear on the equipment. That said, I'm out all day every day, from 40 degrees to winter chills. Dust and debris occasionally fall on the panels over time, but usually, slip away due to the installation angle of the panels, however, some of these particles can remain on the panels and obstruct the rate at which sunlight is absorbed by the panels. This will result in a general reduction in energy production. Pro tip: most of this can be avoided by regularly checking the panels, removing any particles with a simple soap and water solution. An easy way to monitor this is from the comfort of your living room by occasionally checking the monitoring software on your phone. The most modern systems allow the user to control the average output for the day or week. If that output has been decreasing over the course of a few months but the time is the same, you may need to clean the system. Before cleaning Before doing this, however, check the direction of the manufacturer for cleaning. Special instructions or warnings for cleaning the panels may be present. Another thing to consider if you've ever chosen do-it-yourself is to choose a nice day to clean your panels. The panels may be too hot if you choose to clean it around noon. It is advisable to clean it first in the morning or later in the evening. In colder regions where snow often falls, maintenance is also relatively easy as most of the snow that lands on the panels will slip away due to the tilt of the panels or simply melt away from the sun or the internal heat generated by the panels when they absorb sunlight. However, it is still advisable to check the panels and manually remove any excess snow. Do-it-yourself or professional cleaner Despite the do-it-yourself nature of most maintenance, it is also advisable to occasionally request professional help to verify solar panels, especially if the panels are installed on a very high roof that is not easily accessible, these professionals can analyze and evaluate any internal faults that may have occurred inside the solar panels. They can also evaluate overall power and efficiency and advise you on how to ensure that solar panels last for an even longer period. In addition, when it comes to ensuring when properly installed and maintained, solar panels can last up to 20 years. In these 20 years, you would have cut your bills significantly, generated a large amount of electricity and provided enough clean energy for the benefit of your community. How often should I clean my panels? It is recommended to clean the panels once or twice a year. Properly cleaned solar panels have been reported to result in up to 3-5% higher efficiency. In addition, you can simply determine if your panels need cleaning or maintenance if you check your power supply. If you notice that there is a decrease in efficiency, it means that your panels need cleaning and maintenance. If you choose to ignore it, there is a great chance that the life of the panel will drastically decrease, so be sure to take the time to clean and maintain the panels. Conclusively, solar panel maintenance isn’t a very expensive or difficult venture, as long as you follow simple guidelines, then you can power their house efficiently for years without much stress. Cost of maintenance of a solar system Solar panel systems are simple and inexpensive to maintain. In practice, you have to clean them every 6 - 12 months depending on the climate or the region where you live. The cost will depend on whether you choose to do the job alone or to go with a professional. The use of a professional panel cleaner will cost around $ 225 for a 5 kWh system (16-20 panels) each time they go out to clean the panels. Since you will need to do this every 6-12 months, you can calculate an average of around $ 350 per year for cleaning costs. If you choose to do the job yourself, you're looking for $ 35 for a special detergent (although most manufacturers suggest high-quality dishwasher liquid) and other cleaning tools. They will cost around $ 125 as a one-time purchase. Conclusion Solar panel systems are not difficult or expensive to maintain. The biggest outlay is the initial purchase and installation cost. The amount saved on energy production will significantly offset the tiny system maintenance costs with clean light every year.

The coronavirus (COVID-19) has shown most people that the government cannot be completely trusted to meet all their needs in times of turmoil and emergencies, you can be alone. Due to technology, at no time has humanity gone off the grid and living comfortably is so available to everyone. The challenge is that most laws and codes in all areas of government discourage going offline. They are used to promote conformity in society, leading to heavy dependence on the government and its services. Perhaps the master designers of the communities should rethink how the houses of tomorrow will exist within the various networks. First, encourage solar power everywhere, even in cities. The notion of a power plant and a few strands of wire serving millions of people is archaic. If you don't want to cripple your community or nation during a national emergency, let the country's builders and great electrical engineers start powering off-grid homes and businesses with solar and wind power. Propane generators are becoming popular with power outage intervals and this technology has advanced to make switching seamless from traditional and non-traditional power sources. There are three basic advantages of the solar energy system, even in normal situations. 1. Provide clean and renewable energy Solar energy is a 100% clean and renewable energy source. Reduces dependence on oil, coal, and natural gas for electricity production. These fossil fuels produce harmful emissions that affect the quality of air, water, and soil, and are responsible for global warming. It is estimated that between 2000 and 2065, the Earth will lose more species of plants and animals to extinction than in the combined 65 million years before. 2 That's an amazing statistic and one significantly driven by the effects of fossil fuel greenhouse gases. In contrast, solar energy produces no pollution. The abundant power of the sun offers an unlimited source of energy that does not strip the landscape or damage the ozone layer. Residential solar energy systems represent an investment in the planet's future, conserving non-renewable energy sources and protecting the environment. 2. It gives you freedom and control over electricity American households have seen a steady increase in both the frequency and duration of power outages in the past 15 years, according to research by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. The United States has the highest number of blackout minutes of any developed nation. Our power grid is 100 years old and was not built for a large number of people today and extreme weather events. How about other countries ? Our network must be modernized to meet the growing demands of a plugged-in society. Adding a household battery unit powered by residential solar panels can store enough electricity to power households during peak hours of use, giving households the freedom to control their families' electricity. With a residential solar system, your home is powered by rooftop solar panels during the day and energy stored in the battery at night. By installing solar panels, you gain energy independence. Solar panels and household batteries are becoming more affordable, accessible, resistant and efficient. They provide peace of mind and energy security to homes when the power goes out or when the next storm hits. FGET's home solar energy system replenishes energy generated by the sun and eliminates the hassles, uncertainty, and expense of refueling a gas or diesel generator. 3. You can save on your current utility bill If you are facing increased energy costs in the home, home solar panels can offset your costs. Savings can even be accumulated on cloudy days as the sun emits energy through clear and cloudy skies. Solar offers year-round efficiency and savings, even in colder and cloudy climates. Depending on their size, efficiency, and orientation to the sun, some solar panels actually generate more electricity than your home consumes. This could reduce your monthly electric bill to zero. In some areas, you may actually qualify for a refund if your residential solar energy system produces excess electricity. Check the solar energy guidelines in your area.
