Is Solar the Solution?

June 4, 2025

Many homeowners are exploring ways to offset their energy bills and looking for greener
energy alternatives. These two motives are leading homeowners to explore an interest in
rooftop solar panels. Like any major purchase, installing rooftop solar can be a big decision. It’s
important to understand the actual costs, the operational reality, and if solar will achieve your
energy goals.

members as we focus on building a brighter future for our communities. Let our energy specialists assist
you on whether rooftop solar could be the right fit.

It is essential to understand how solar works and how it could meet your expectations. Having goals, i.e., the
amount of offset you wish to accomplish, will help determine the size of the solar system and if battery
storage is required to meet your objectives. Union Power can assess your account history and advise on
the current performance of your home.

When considering these options, we suggest you examine your home’s overall energy efficiency by
