Before solar, this homeowner was paying $0.19 per kWh to National Grid. After installing this 22-panel solar energy system that covers 99% of the home’s electricity bill the homeowner has essentially locked in a super low electricity rate of 6 cents for the next several decades. A result thanks to not only electricity savings but also the Federal ITC and Rhode Island’s Renewable Energy Growth (REG) Program.
Imagine suddenly paying one-third the usual price for your groceries, or mortgage, or car lease. Wouldn’t that be nice? That’s what solar is doing for this Coventry, RI homeowner.
