Why Homeowners Go Solar
Electric rates are on the rise. Over the past 10 years, TVA’s rates have been increasing at a rate of 5% per year. We expect rates to rise higher over the next 20 years.
You can hedge against rising rates with clean, free power from the sun. With no moving parts and very little maintenance, solar panels are a long-term solution to your energy needs.
In addition, solar increases the value of your property and differentiates your home from others on the market.
