For over a year now, SDH has partnered with Sigora Solar to offer our customers easy and affordable alternative energy solutions. In fact, all the homes built in The Woods at Burnet Commons are pre-wired for solar panel systems. With the help of an installed 1kW Solar System, we’ve been able to decrease the carbon footprint of our model at The Woods by over 1,700lbs in 2014 alone! That’s the equivalent of 21 trees.
Facts:
- 19-20% of household energy consumption will be produced by the 1kW system (a 5kW system will produce 97%!)
- Net-Metered systems mean that a kWh for kWh credit will be given by Dominion when production is greater than consumption
- The power coming from installed solar systems micro-invertors is significantly “cleaner” than the grid, therefore increasing appliance lifespan throughout the home.
