Yes, there is an out-of-pocket expense to adding solar to your home, but once it’s a part of your home, living in Las Vegas, you’ll likely never have to pay for electricity again. With an average of 294 sunny days in southern Nevada, the odds are in your favor that your system will produce the energy you need to stay grid independent.

According to Eco-watch, the average homeowner in Nevada saves $18,319 over the lifetime of their solar system. That’s better than putting your money in a savings account! In sunny locations, like Las Vegas, solar can even make you money, because you can sell excess power you produce back to the grid at the same rate that the power company sells it to customers for.
- Solar is environmentally sustainable. A real and growing demand for renewable energy is taking place in our state, across our country, and in fact, around the world. Consumers and businesses are increasingly weighing environmental impact and policies and taking sustainability into consideration.
