Love of my System, and making my own Electricity!

I started paying attention to my electricity bill because my home is serviced by the city of Vero Beach Electric company, and my neighbors a few streets away, are serviced by FP&L and pay a lot less than I do for electricity; there was an intense debate in the local paper discussing a possible sale of the utility to FP&L which could lower rates, but nothing seemed certain, and years away at the soonest, if at all. I was frustrated that I had to pay more for electricity, because of where I lived, and it seemed like there wasn't anything I could do about it. Fortunately, in my search, I learned that I could produce my own electricity with a Solar Power system! I reached out to a few area companies to get a quote, and after comparing 3 quotes, I choose Goldin Solar because their quotation process was far more specific than the other companies. They asked to see 12 months worth of bills, while the other companies just asked to see my last bill. One of their competitors proposed selling me less panels, and a new pool pump, saying that the new pump would reduce my bill by over 20%. Goldin Solar installed an energy sensor that measured the amount of electricity used by my pump and other devices in my home, and showed me that my pool pump only used about 5% of my total electricity, and even if the new pump used no electricity at all, that it couldn't reduce my bill by the 20% proposed; they had my business because they didn't exaggerate. Once I signed on, they came by the house to get my roof measured within a few days. It did take over a month for them to get a permit, but as soon as they had it they were out to the house within a week, and had the system installed a few days later! The install team was courteous and hard working, and did a great job of showing me how the system worked. On the last day of the installation, they set up an app on my phone so that I could see each and every panel. I'm pleased to say that after almost a year, the system is doing exactly what they said it would, and I am quietly producing my own electricity, and hope to continue to do so for many more to come!
