Solar PV and Geothermal Heat Pumps

Electrical Savings At The Speed Of Light
Solar Energy Systems Vary In Size Based On A Large Number Of Factors, But Ground Soure Heat Pumps Bring The Savings

Imagine saying goodbye to high energy bills. That’s a real possibility when you combine solar panels with ground source heat pumps. Solar panels create their own clean electricity from the sun, and this power can run your home’s heating and cooling. Heat pumps are super-efficient because they just move heat, pulling warmth from the earth in winter and putting it back in summer. These clever systems need very little electricity, making them a perfect match for your solar power.

The real magic here is how little you’ll rely on the power company. Because ground source heat pumps are so efficient, they sip The real magic here is how little you’ll rely on the power company. Because ground source heat pumps are so efficient, they sip electricity instead of guzzling it. When those sips are powered by your own rooftop or ground mounted solar, your home can become largely energy independent. This translates into much lower, or even non-existent, monthly energy bills, putting significant savings back in your pocket and giving you greater control over your home’s energy consumption and reliance.

Financial Incentives for Solar PV

There is a 30% federal tax credit available for residential and commercial solar PV arrays (ground and roof mounts). You are eligible for the tax credit as long as you own your solar energy system. If you don’t have enough tax liability to claim the entire credit in one year, you can “roll over” remaining credits into future years.

There are also state tax incentives, as well as credits, referred to as SRECS (Solar Renewable Energy Certificates), that allow homeowners and commercial building owners to sell certificates back to their utility based on the production of their solar array. Every 1000-kilowatt hours produced by the solar array equates to 1 SREC credit, which are then applied to the overall cost of the system.
