Are solar panels worth it?

<div><p>In most cases, yes, solar panels are well worth the investment.

Plus, installing solar panels can boost your home value, helping your profit off your next home sale.</p></div>

Do I need permits for solar panel installation?

<div><p>Yes, solar panel installation will require permits. The required permits will depend on where you live, as some states and cities have solar-specific permits, while others only require electrical permits to connect to the grid. In either case, it’s best to hire a reputable solar installer in your area, as a representative should handle all of the necessary permitting for you and will include the cost of the permits in your initial solar estimate.</p></div>

"Solenergi designed a solar system and installed 24 panels on our house in Arlington. We worked with Suhaib Shah from Solenergi on the design of the solar system to meet our anticipated electrical use. He was willing to go back and forth with us multiple times as we optimized the panel arrangement. On our behalf, Solenergi got the necessary permit approvals from Arlington County and Dominion Energy, installed the panels, and made sure that we were connected to the Enphase app that allows us to track our electrical generation. Once installed, Solenergi set us up with SRECtrade so that we would receive SRECs. Suhaib was always available to field questions and address concerns. We very much enjoyed our interactions with him and appreciated his patience as he walked us through the process. The project took longer than expected because of unanticipated panel availability issues (we eventually changed to Qcell panels, which we were happy with). Solenergi actually deducted from the price of our system an estimate of the additional Dominion Energy bills that we incurred because of the installation delay, something we didn't ask for. We obtained proposals from three solar companies. Each company proposed a somewhat different system that made direct comparison difficult, but our analysis showed that Solenergi offered the lowest price when systems were compared on a kW basis. Their competitive price as well as inclusion of highly rated panels in their proposal were two reasons for selecting Solenergi. Now that the system has been operating for a couple of months, we're thrilled to receive Dominion Energy bills of $6/month. All in all, we're very happy with our decision to install solar panels and to use Solenergi for designing and installing our system."
