How much do you know about solar power in Idaho? This quick Big Dog Solar video highlights three facts homeowners may not realize about going solar.
First, the video points to the potential financial benefits of solar, stating that Idaho homeowners can save an average of $829 per year. Actual savings can vary depending on factors such as energy usage, system size, utility rates, solar production, and available utility programs.
Second, the video highlights Idaho as a strong state for solar energy, ranking it as the 9th best state for solar power at the time the video was created. Idaho’s sunny climate and solar potential can make residential solar an attractive option for homeowners looking to produce more of their own electricity.
Finally, going solar doesn’t necessarily mean disconnecting from the electrical grid. Most residential solar customers remain connected to their utility, allowing the home to draw electricity from the grid when the solar system isn’t producing enough power.
