Solar energy has become ubiquitous throughout the world for many reasons, primarily because solar energy represents the most viable alternative to traditional forms of energy used in the past. 

With federal and state incentives in place making it easier and more affordable to switch to renewable energy, solar energy is touching the lives of more people and households than ever before.

Below, Geneverse goes over a few convincing reasons to switch to solar power this year.

1.) Reduce Your Carbon Footprint

Switching to solar is a great way to reduce dependency on fossil fuels. Solar power is reliable and renewable, green energy that comes from the sun, energy you can use to power your life and your household.

Solar power means clean energy. Grid power equals dirty energy. Homeowners who switch to solar reduce stress on the grid while promoting eco-friendliness.

2.) Save Money

Now that solar power has been around for a while, cost of components and installation is steadily decreasing. According to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, there has been a 60% to 82% reduction in overall cost of residential, commercial-rooftop, and utility-scale photovoltaic systems. 

Not only this, converting to solar energy will also help you save money on your utility bills. Pairing your solar energy system with the grid will give you the ability to provide excess energy to the grid while receiving credits toward your monthly energy bill. Over time, you stand to recoup the cost of installation with the savings you get from converting to solar energy.

3.) Emergency/Disaster Preparedness

Solar power comes through in the clutch during emergencies and disasters. Opting for battery storage gives you the ability to hold onto your stored energy, which can be used during blackouts, outages, and unforeseen emergencies. 

With the PowerPillar ESS you can seamlessly switch from grid to stored solar energy, which will help keep you powered through good times and uncertain times.

4.) Promote Green Energy

Once you make the shift to solar you’ll inadvertently become a solar energy spokesperson. Your neighbors, friends, and colleagues will likely ask you about your transition to green energy. You can tell people your story and spread the word, making a positive impact in your community in the process.

Switching to solar will also help with job creation in the green energy sector. When you invest in solar power you are supporting installation, maintenance, and manufacturing, which helps keep specialized and skilled workers gainfully employed. 

5.) Own Your Power
