Have you ever thought, “Man, I really should fire my electricity company,” while dining at La Farm Bakery? Perhaps you’ve thought about it while sipping a beer at Bond Brothers or Fortnight Brewing Company, but you decided against exploring it further after hearing that “it just isn’t worth it.” Let’s clear up the confusion once and for all, then!

Xavier Veille, the CEO of Sunshine Saves Inc., formerly had a solar installation business for almost ten years before selling it. Since he has held every position in the sector, he adds a singular experience to the sales process.

In order to determine the exact monthly and annual production from the solar system, we carefully examine your house or place of business. We base the system size on the past 12 to 24 months of usage data.
When examining a roof, we consider crucial elements like the azimuth and pitch of the roof surface that may impact output. The tree coverage around the planned design should also be taken into account, as this will enable you to include tree pruning or removal in your price.

Solar Access Law in North Carolina
Many consumers worry that their COAs or HOAs may limit their ability to install solar power. The good news is that none of these organizations can prevent you from going solar, according to North Carolina Senate Bill 670. At all. Period.
However, HOAs or COAs may have rules or bylaws that limit where your solar array may be placed on your land. HOAs frequently want to have the position of the array hidden from the street or one or more community common areas.
But any request, bylaw, or regulation is completely illegal if it will reduce the effectiveness of your solar array (their preferred position is shadowed or north-facing), and you have the right to erect the array where it would be most efficient.
