Produce your own and reduce your energy costs and switch to renewable energy today! Our PV systems produce solar electricity without consuming fuel or creating pollution. No oil, coal, natural gas, uranium or plutonium is consumed. Nor is any carbon dioxide, sulfur oxide, greenhouse gas, smog or other pollutants released. During the day, when your solar system has more power then you need, the excess solar electricity flows from your house to the power lines, running your meter backwards, earning you solar credits.
At night, and when your needs are greater than your solar panels are producing, the grid supplies your power. Applied Solar has been helping residents of Monterey, Santa Cruz, and San Benito counties for over 30 years!

In order to suggest appropriate sizes for a solar system and do an analysis, it is helpful to know your current or projected electrical consumption in terms of kilowatt-hours per month.
The first place to start is to tell us how much electricity you use now.
From that we can tell you the economics of different options (replacing all your usage with solar, replacing some.).
Because of the structure of the rates, the economics are very dependent on your consumption.

PV cells were originally developed for use in space, where repair is extremely expensive, if not impossible.
Solar energy still powers nearly every satellite circling the earth because it operates reliably for long periods of time with virtually no maintenance.
Our highly reliable Photo Voltaic solar panels offer huge advantages over diesel generators, batteries, and even conventional utility power.
Photo voltaic cells harnesses the energy from the sun and creates energy for your home or business.

When you invest in a solar system, you receive non-taxable dividends each year in the form of the cash that is no longer being paid to the utility company.
The solar panel system has an internal rate of return higher than the yield achievable through most other investments (see table 1).
In other words, to perform financially as well on a non-solar investment, you must receive a return equal to the solar IRR (on a tax-free investment or the Taxed Equivalent Rate on a taxable investment).
If you invest the same amount as the net cost of a solar energy system, you need to make as much money to pay your utility bills as the solar electric system saves, plus enough more to pay any taxes on the investment returns.

U.S. Navy veteran Elmer Rankin, 71, has a failing heart, prostate cancer and arthritis that keeps him in a wheelchair.
Last year, Rankin, who survives on his Social Security checks, could no longer afford the mounting costs to heat his home and power the oxygen tank he uses every night.
He turned down the heat and got so cold that he wound up in the hospital.
Fortunately, while Rankin's health remains precarious, today he's no longer scrambling to pay for power.
Thanks to rooftop solar panels - paid for with a California subsidy - Rankin's monthly energy bill has dropped from an average of $250 to less than $22.

Should Solar Energy be in your business plan?
Do you own a business in the Monterey County, Santa Cruz County, or San Benito County that could save money and help the environment with Solar Panels?
Most people know that solar energy is environmentally attractive--and that solar panels or PV systems have made great technical strides over the past 10 years.
Solar systems are economically attractive as well, especially for commercial users.
The Monterey Bay area and Central Coast of California are among the best locations in the world for solar energy production, not just because of the amount of sunshine, but also because the cost of utility power is relatively high.
