1 - HOW LONG DO SOLAR PANELS LAST?
Solar panel manufacturing has come a long way and the material quality keeps improving. Standard performance warranties are between 25 and 30 years from reputable manufacturers, if maintained the solar panels will keep producing power for much longer than this. Independent Power Generation uses only quality Tier 1 solar panels.
2 - HOW MUCH POWER DOES A SOLAR PANEL MAKE?
The performance of a 10,000-watt solar energy system varies based on several factors. On average, anticipate an annual production ranging from 9,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours in the Pacific Northwest region.
3 - DO I NEED BATTERIES FOR SOLAR TO WORK?
NO! You can reap the benefits of solar power without batteries. Through 'Net Metering' the surplus energy generatored by your solar panels is sent back to the utility grid and you will recieve 'Credits' that are applied to future bills.
4 - IS IT POSSIBLE TO INSTALL SOLAR PANELS ON AN OLDER ROOF?
Installing solar panels on roofs in poor condition may not align with our clients' best interests. GAF roofing recommends avoiding solar installation on roofs over 5 years old, while Energy Trust of Oregon suggests a minimum of 10 years of roof life. At Independent Power Generation, we prioritize quality and will not install solar modules on visibly deteriorated roofs. With our in-house roofing crew, we offer the added benefit of simultaneous roof replacement during solar panel installation, providing a seamless solution with numerous advantages.
5 - WHAT IS A 'SOLAR GENERATOR'?
'Solar Generator' is a marketing term describing a prebuilt portable system featuring a solar array, inverter, and battery. While convenient, these products offer limited performance and may not be suitable for home backup purposes.
