Save money with solar panels
Even a small system can save more than $2,000 every year.
With solar system you save twice
Most non-profit system costs are reduced significantly with government incentives. A typical system saves over $3,000 every year by reducing your electric bill and producing solar renewable energy credits (SRECs). In this way, you save twice — at the moment of buying and during the decades of solar energy production.
Solar system pays for itself in 15 years
Green Street Solar takes care of the application process and coordinates on your behalf the applications, permits and related paperwork. It is through the combination of all available programs and incentives that you will benefit from substantial savings. This is how a typical system installed on a non-profit in Maryland works.
