Solar Water Heating Systems

Those interested in reducing your utility bill should start here.  If you are heating water with
electricity or gas, in the next 20 years you will spend over
$30,000 more than necessary to heat
water.  
Let the sun heat your water and spend that money on something else.

Our systems qualify for the 30% Federal tax credit, are high-performance, reliable, require
very little maintenance, and are affordable.  Using the sun's energy to heat water is the best
way to reduce your dependence on purchased energy and lower your energy bill.  
Solar Thermal Panels
Battery Based Solar Systems

Battery based solar systems provide reliable energy when other systems fail.  Look here if you
are concerned about an extended grid outage or want a high degree of freedom.  These
systems provide:
  • Power to remote locations
  • Security - like nothing else
  • Power to critical appliances and medical equipment
Solar Panels Recharge Batteries
Grid-Tied Non-Battery Solar Systems

About 90% of all solar PV systems installed today are direct (non-battery) grid-tied systems.  
They qualify for the
30% Federal tax credit and are most popular where they are subsidized
by local and state incentives and electric rates are really high.  TVA has a limited incentive
program but Alabama Power does not.  At today's rates, these systems will provide you with a
5.5% annual long-term return on your investment.
Solar PV Panels
All energy originates from the sun.  Solar energy is abundant in Alabama AND, solar energy is an efficient way to use energy that is already falling on your property.  Solar panels on your home or
business can harvest this renewable energy source, help you reduce your dependence on fossil fuels, reduce your energy bills, save you money, and provide energy when the conventional sources
become unreliable or fail.

Solar Technology Alabama was formed in 2008 to promote the use of renewable energy in Alabama and give the citizens of Alabama a access to solar electric systems and solar hot water systems.  We  
provide a complete system and installation.  In some cases, we can provide the solar panels for you to install yourself.  We'll even be glad to provide some assistance.

Heating water with the sun is one of the best ways to get started.  If you heat your water with electricity, it is also the best way to reduce your electric bill.  And the pay back is tremendous.  Solar water
heaters are extremely reliable, virtually maintenance free, and can pay for themselves in as little as six years.  You will still need to use a little electricity for those extended cloudy periods, but if the sun is
shining, your thermal system will be working to capture those free BTU's.  

Solar electric systems will eventually become commonplace.  The lowest cost power still comes from the utility but the time is right to consider solar.  The break-even point on a non-battery grid-tied system
that will offset a chunk of your electric bill is now around eleven years and the system will provide you with a solid 5.5% return on your investment.  Once the system passes the break even point, it is all
tax-free income.

What will you do if disaster strikes and the grid goes down or becomes unreliable?  Will you be able to communicate with your neighbors?  911 will not work if the power lines, phone lines, and cell towers
are all out.  Your neighbors will be all you have.  Your survival may depend on having access to a system that can recharge batteries to power radios and other life-essential equipment.

Solar Technology Alabama is here to serve your alternate energy needs.  An on-site survey for a modest (refundable) fee will help you get started.  We design a solar system just for your needs and
perform a complete installation.
