Become Energy Independent – Going Solar
Sumo makes choosing the right solar system easy.
Many households start the process of switching to Solar energy but find it challenging to navigate through confusing and cluttered market. We’d like to provide a straightforward source of information to get you through so that both your household and the environment can start benefiting. Whether you’re motivated by reducing your own fossil fuel footprint, or you’d like to earn money from your utility company, going Solar pays off. Take a look at how Solar will be advantageous to you and what we offer here at Sumo.
Key Benefits of Going Solar:
Sell back excess Solar to utility providers:
Most people understand that a Solar system will save them money on their electricity bill because they are pulling less power from the grid while they are creating energy of their own from the sun. However, the savings go much farther than that. If you’re implementing energy saving tactics around your house and reducing your overall energy use, you may even produce excess energy from your Solar power than you use in your home. So, what happens to this excess energy? Sumo buys it back! You can get paid from your power company for your excess energy. Not to mention, having a complete Solar system installed in your home is added value in the real estate market if you’re thinking of selling in the future.
Reduce your impact while reducing your electricity bill:
The panels installed on your roof operate by converting the sun’s light into electricity through semi-conducting material. The light particles excite the panel cells, usually silicon, and create a flow of energy, which is then converted into electricity. Not only is this an extremely reliable form of energy, it is also the cleanest. By using Solar for your home, you’re reducing not only your own carbon footprint, but also the damaging effect of fossil fuels, and contributing to cleaner air for your children and your community.
Store surplus electricity to use at night
Solar panels need the sun to convert light into usable energy, but that doesn’t mean your Solar system can’t power you through the night. Once sunlight is converted into electricity, it can then be stored in a battery pack to be used when it is dark. This means that you don’t stop saving money during the hours the panels aren’t receiving light.
