Consider an Active Solar Remodel

Posted by: Energy Admin In: Energy Tips

The Federal goverment is offering  tax credits for installing active solar energy equipment. Energy Solutions New Mexico is working with local lenders and contractors to find ways that home owners can finance solar systems and pay them back using utility savings over the course of the loan. A HERS rating or an energy audit is a good start to determine what energy improvements are best suited to your situation and what payback period would best match your projected utility savings.
