Today’s Situation

Rising Energy Costs

• Increasing Utility Rates

• Increasing Fuel Charges

Global Warming

• Carbon Emissions

• Environmental Impacts

Dependence on Non-Renewable Energy Resources

• Orlando Utilities (OUC) rates: • 15% increase in January 2009

• Florida Power (FPL) rates: • 30% anticipated in 2010

• Progress Energy rates: • 30% increase in 2009 • 30% requested for 2010

• Kissimmee Utilities (KUA) rates: • 19% increase in 2009

• Tampa Electric (TECO) rates: • 10% increase in 2009

2009 Energy Increases

Wars in Iraq & Afghanistan; Nuclear Iran

Unstable Oil Prices

Nuclear is Not the Answer

We Need:

Clean Energy Today for a

Brighter Tomorrow

Protect Your Environment• Clean, renewable energy source• Proven technology• No Carbon Bi-Products

Why Solar?

Save Money Every Month• Generate your own Electricity• The System Pays for Itself• Increase Home Value - Tax Free• Protect against future rate hikes

Best Incentives Ever• State of Florida Rebates • Federal Government Grant/Tax

Credit• Manufacturer (ASP) Rebate• Utility Incentives

How Solar PV Works

• Sunlight (photons) on the solar panel generates a DC

Voltage

• DC Current flows from the panels to the Inverter

• The Inverter converts DC electricity to usable AC electricity

• Excess AC electricity is fed back to the utility grid

• lowering your electric bill

Basic Site Qualifiers

• Site requires a Southern, Western, or Eastern exposure (Southern is best)

• Must be free of tree cover and obstructions to sunlight• Must have structurally sound roof for roof mount

applications• Must have space on breaker box and electrical capacity for

back feed
