Solar Panels for Every Roof

A solar system on a Chicago rooftop is as simple and affordable as any in California or Germany. Chicagoland has great potential for harvesting the sun’s rays. We get more sun than Japan or Germany and we have some of the broadest shoulders in nation. So why are we not leading the pack? We can produce 4.3 k.w per square meter. That’s a lot of power.
The argument is that solar power is expensive. A homeowner does not have to purchase enough to offset their usage by 100%. That’s like trying to save enough for you retirement all in one year. Start with a six panels 1 kW
system that might offset 10%. It will add value to your home, give your family energy security, lower the utility bills and help some polar bears from drowning.
