Its Friday :) We all need something to chuckle about!

Freedom Energy was recently asked some very important questions. So that everyone can see our responses, we decide to post our answers here.

1. Are there any grants in place yet/now in Alberta to subsidize such a system?
Yes, in Alberta, There are grants in place. When your system is installed and approved by all regulator bodies, Freedom Energy assists you in applying for a rebate.
Residential rebates are 30% of Install up to $10000
Commercial/Agricultural are 25% of install.

2. How durable are these panels (honestly) with our Calgary hail storms? And if damaged via hail... we go through insurance?
The Solar Panels that are sold today are very durable, they test them by dropping ball bearings from a significant height. Surprisingly, They will withstand a very large hail storm with out damage.
Yes, like your shingles on your roof or the siding o your house, your solar system should be insured in your home policy. We recommend that you check with your insurance provider.

3. To still make a small payment a month, is this because the utilities have locked down their monopolies (again) and we're not allowed to sell extra power back into the grid?
When we design our systems for your home, we target a "net zero" installation. Meaning your cost of energy from the power company is zero over a period of one year. For a further explanation of Net Zero, please scroll down to our post fully explaining this. Any additional power your Solar System produces is sold back to the power company, and if at the end of the year there is a credit in your favor, they are mandated to pay you for that power.

I once priced a system for the top of a 6-plex. $40K out of my own pocket (no grants available). And what little it produced would have taken 40 YEARS for me to see a return. And if ANY panels were hail damaged within that time, I would be out of pocket for insurance deductible and increased premiums. IS this true?
We are finding that the systems we propose will pay for them selves in 8-12 years in Alberta.(Without Rebate) A little longer in other areas. Every installation is unique. Some produce more power than others due to many factors, shading, roof direction, size of roof and angle of roof. I would recommend having us do a free no obligation energy assessment for your property.
