Here Comes the Sun: Free Solar Event to offer info on incentives and more

Posted

Have you often wondered if you could have solar panels on your roof, but were confused about the costs, special deals, and incentives? The Montclair Office of Environmental Affairs is hosting a free event to answer all your questions, so residents can reduce their electricity bills while protecting the planet.

“Solar Homes Montclair”, on Thursday, February 12, 7:00 – 9:00 p.m., at the Fire Headquarters’ Community Room, 1 Pine Street, 07042, will bring several solar companies together to provide clear presentations with helpful information explaining financial options, leasing versus buying, solar energy credits, with responses to every question so that homeowners and commercial property owners can make smart, responsible choices.

New Jersey is a national leader in solar installations, and thousands of homeowners are already enjoying the benefits of clean, affordable electricity, with cutting-edge solar technology. These companies will explain simply what it takes to go solar – from permits to local incentives.

Helping the environment doesn't have to mean emptying your pockets; in fact an energy plan can save you thousands of dollars. In some cases, property owners can acquire solar panels with little or no upfront costs.

Different people go solar for different reasons, but the outcome is the same: more power from the sun, lower electricity costs, and the chance to make a positive environmental impact.
