Lumina Review<br />We had a great experience buying a multi-home solar system with Lumina Solar. Our consultant, Christopher Richardson did a great job. I’m a retired Nuclear Engineer and I figured that I could design the system we wanted and get multiple Solar companies to bid against each other, so we could get the best price. <br />Boy was I wrong! When I told Christopher what we wanted, he looked at all our buildings. He found that by using our Barn and Hayloft roofs, we could improve our Solar Energy capture efficiency from 72% to 98%. The savings over the 25-year lifespan of the system will be tremendous.<br />Christopher explained that this was possible because we could use the Electricity generated at our barns for all our properties. This was because we qualified for “Virtual Aggregate Net Metering”. This means that we could put the panels on the best South facing roofs and use the electricity for all the other buildings.<br />None of the other eight Solar Companies that gave us quotes, picked up on Christopher’s approach. To make it even better, before we started, he reviewed our Monthly Electric Bills and noticed that we were paying our current Electric Company twice what we could pay with a different supplier.<br />We changed suppliers that day and cut our bills in half.<br />Even after the installation, Christopher Richardson has been very responsive to my detailed technical questions.<br /><br />Ninety 405 Watt DC REC panels with Enphase 8+ microinverters 290 Watt AC produces 26,100 Watts AC.
