Did You Know
Studies have conclusively demonstrated that energy payback for photovoltaic (PV) energy is now less than three years. Given that PV module warranties are generally in excess of 20 years, a PV system will produce far more energy over its lifetime than was consumed to manufacture it. Technological progress is reducing the energy consumption of PV manufacturing further. Energy output and input ratios for concentrating solar power (CSP) and solar water heating equipment are also favorable.
Solar for Government
Every capital dollar saved in energy costs with solar power can be redirected for public good.
As overall energy costs continue to rise while the costs to generate solar fall, the Federal, State, and local government and utilities in Texas have created tremendous financial incentives to switch to solar power. Solar is simply a good investment for government. Beyond the financial motivations, the long-term environmental impact of choosing solar is considerable; as an influential member of your community, you demonstrate leadership and environmental stewardship by making the switch. By generating your own solar power, you also validate your commitment to a reliable source of renewable, domestic energy.
Meridian Solar has over a decade of experience working with government agencies to incorporate solar into their buildings. Moreover, with the current substantial public funding and incentives now in place, the time to go solar has never been better.
Having completed numerous government installations in Texas, including the largest Federal government installation in the State, Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio, Meridian Solar has a thorough understanding of the specific needs around your project. Our experience in navigating compliance issues make it simple to enjoy the benefits of saving energy costs and reducing your long-term environmental impact.
For these applications, Meridian Solar also can include a custom monitoring system that gathers and records system performance in real-time. This data can be used to demonstrate the benefits of harnessing energy sources that are renewable and domestic for the sake of the environment and the nation.
