This review is brought to you by the power of the sun. It takes careful attention to many details for such a thing to happen. Everything from site planning to equipment selection, permit application, state and federal paperwork, financing options, array design, installation, use, monitoring needs to be done in an orderly, professional fashion in order to facilitate the actual process of making solar energy a part of your home's conservation plan. We installed a 7.1 KWh ground mounted Solar Array and went live on 5/1/2013. <br /><br />There are a lot of details! There are codes that have to be not only known about, but adhered to. Equipment needs to be procured. Local permits need to be acquired. Numerous site inspections are mandated by government agencies. Financing considerations need to be addressed. Even esthetics play a role in the decision making process. These people know how to do all this stuff.<br /><br />And make no mistake, this is some serious energy being produced. This array is not a big battery charger! We run the house on the thing! We needed someone who knew just exactly what they were doing and why so we could count on them to get it right the first time. The entire staff of Sustainable Energy Developments provided sound advice, excellent workmanship and an overall very pleasant experience during this project from start to finish.<br /><br />They have our strongest recommendation and we suggest they be included in your search for companies to do your next alternative energy project. And yes, they do wind power too! We may be looking at that next.
