Your home uses the energy produced first, then additional power is sent to the utility company. At night and during winter, you use the kWh credits. This is known as net metering. Annually, unused credits are donated to help people pay their electric bill, so Elemental Energy sizes your system according to your annual consumption.
A clear copy of your recent electric bill shows the last 12 months of usage (determines system size), what type of service you have (residential, farm, etc.), and your rate plan (to compare with the cost of solar). It is important to accurately size the system from the beginning. If you decide to move forward, the account number and precise name on the account is used to complete a net metering application on your behalf by Elemental Energy.
Analyzing shade helps Elemental Energy calculate how much energy the panels will produce, and verifies they will get enough sun to qualify for incentives. Elemental Energy completes this analysis either remotely with satellite images, or on-site with a device. There is also established technology to boost the performance of east- and west-facing panels, and those with partial shade. If you have room, you can also consider a ground mount system.
The type of roofing material (and how many layers), vent locations, the age of the roof, the pitch and a roof plane’s orientation to the south all factor into our calculations and proposals by Elemental Energy.
You can expect a useful life of 30+ years for your solar system, 10- to 25-year equipment warranties, and an ROI of 5 to 17 years, depending on financing and incentives. Elemental Energy's work on your roof carries a 10-year warranty.
Element Energy Systems recently installed solar panels and a backup battery at our home, and they did an outstanding job. Their staff was knowledgeable, courteous, patient, and professional throughout the process, and exceeded our expectations in every way. (I'm sure it is probably why this local business has been around for decades.) Patrick, our sales rep, and Daniel, the service technician, epitomized these qualities and deserve special recognition. So, if you’re looking to install solar panels and a backup battery, do your research, but be sure to check out Element Energy Systems. We could not be happier with the results and highly recommend Element Energy Systems to anyone considering a solar-powered system for their home.
I was in talks with Element Energy for over a year. I never felt pressured to get the system and they were always helpful with the information. Right before I put in solar I had a heat pump installed. No one was sure how much electricity we would use for the heat pump but the engineers for Element calculated it perfectly! During the installation the workers were careful to not rip up my lawn and the way they hid the wires in a way that made really have to look for them. From the initial talks to beyond installation I am extremely happy with the service they provided.
Working with Element Energy was a smooth process from start to finish. Chris from Element Energy sat down and worked with me to remove my previously leased panels from another company and install new ones, which I now own. This is saving me a lot of money. I would highly recommend working with Chris from Element Energy. He explained everything thoroughly from payments down to energy cost savings.
We had an exceptional experience with Element Energy Systems! Our point of contact David Perez, went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. The team was always punctual, tidy, and readily available to address our needs. Their outstanding workmanship, truly impressed us. Additionally, the staff was not only friendly, but also incredibly knowledgeable making the entire process, smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend!
My inverter went bad and the company that I used to install my system had gone out of business. I search for new company and found element. When I first called I spoke to Mike Lawson, and he said that he would get me squeezed in to get my system back up and running as soon as possible. His construction manager Dave gave me a call. They scheduled me to have the inverter replaced. The technician that came to my house Dave was very personable very friendly and knew what he was doing. For you know what I was up and running again I had to transfer over my system to element so they could gain access to solar Edge. This was the best decision I made in a while. I would highly recommend his company to fix repair or install a system.
