Efficient Energy of Tennessee can help you achieve your energy goals through the implementation of a solar electric system. We’ve already helped many get their homes off the grid completely and others reduce their power bills to nothing or to where they receive a credit from their utility company every month.

 


Not only will a solar electric system help you immediately save on your utility bills, but it will also increase the value of your home and be attractive to future home buyers looking to save some money on electricity.

 


With the current economy, not many investments are as profitable and risk-free as investing in solar. The government is currently giving a tax credit for 30% of the system cost, and utility companies provide incentives for purchasing the power your system produces. The biggest variable is system production, affected mostly by the weather. The models we use for system production are based on weather data that has been gathered for over 50 years.

 


Efficient Energy of Tennessee will see your residential solar electric system through from initial interest to installation. Often, we will send someone to your home to determine just how viable solar is for your home. EETN will make sure you get the most for your money through research on available incentives for your location. After your solar electric system has been designed and your paperwork has been approved, EETN will coordinate with your local utility and send out certified installers to get your system installed and running, so you can start seeing the savings immediately.

 


With EETN, you even have the option of system monitoring where you can take control of your system and keep track of its production.

 


Now, save even more money on installation through community solar. Gather your neighbors and call us to come speak with them about the costs and benefits of solar. If multiple neighbors choose to proceed, then they all save on installation.

 


Community developers and home owners associations are also encouraged to call us about group solar discounts.

 


With incentives only set to decrease over time, now is the best time to invest in solar. Call us now at 865-947-3386 or email us.
