Reasons to Consider Home Solar

Solar power for your home is a hot topic! More and more people are seeking energy independence as well as looking to cleaner, greener tech to provide solutions in their every day lives. Thankfully residential solar in Idaho is more efficient and more affordable than ever before. But why are some of the reasons YOU may want to consider solar pv for your home?

Cost Improvements
Not only is solar more efficient than ever it’s also more affordable. In years past the cost of adding solar to your home or including it in your build plan was a little daunting and could take up a considerable amount of your budget. And while we never want to tell people that solar is cheap by any means, it has definitely fallen in cost to the consumer over the last decade.

Savings
Your can begin saving on your home power bills immediately! This is money you can save or use for other improvement and maintenance for your home every single month. The amount you can save depends on your home energy usage as well as how many panels you have installed but more than just savings, in many cases, you may even receive additional incentives through federal and local programs.

Independence
When the grid goes down in a storm or other incident your home will still have ready power! Power for lights, power for refrigeration, and power to keep the kids from making you crazy until the internet is back on. Especially in remote areas, solar can provide a sense of security and stability with energy you can rely on.

Home Value
In many cases adding solar or other home energy solutions to your home while you are living there can equal better return should you decide to sell. Solar and energy improvements are some of the biggest home improvements that show return on investment and you’ll be happy you planned ahead when closing time comes.

No matter what your reasons, if you’ve been interested in solar for your home in Idaho for some time and been putting it off, now is the time!

It’s Never Too Early to Plan to Save!

Fool’s Spring, the Spring of Deception! Call it what you will, while we’ve seen a little warm snap in the Treasure Valley over the last few days – and a fairly mild Winter overall so far – Spring isn’t on the way just quite yet! But! That doesn’t mean that it’s too early to start planning to save on your energy bills this year.

Here at Renewable Energy NW LLC we’re already getting excited for the warmer seasons – if for no other reason than it means less frozen fingers and toes while we work! Growth in Idaho continues to be fairly steady and it’s always a little nicer to work installing solar thermal flooring when the temperatures are above freezing. Whether or not that same sentiment will continue into the Summer as we’re up on roof tops putting in solar PV is a whole other story!

One thing that won’t change regardless of season is the fact that we’re one of Idaho’s longest running and most experienced green energy company! We’ve installed over 2,000 panels all across Idaho including the Treasure Valley, Magic Valley, and beyond. What’s more, we’ve worked with all sizes and types of clients – from huge multi-acre dairies to single-family homes, apartment complexes, and more. And we don’t just do solar thermal – or solar PV! – we offer whole house energy solutions from floor to ceiling!

If you’re looking to start fresh this year with a new home, or are looking for ways to start saving in the home you’ve been in for years, we would love to talk with you! Whatever you energy problems are we have the solution!

Earth Day! Open House Event!

Renewable Energy NW is excited to be able to offer this special Earth Day on-site solar open house event in Middleton, Idaho!
Monday, April 22, 2019 at 12 PM – 3 PM
This is your chance to meet the RENW team in person and see the work being done as it happens! Take advantage of this unique event to ask all the questions you have about solar thermal systems and ICF Building, how these systems work, and how they can benefit you.

Here is a quick link to the address:
VISIT! 1932 Scotch Pine Drive in Middleton Idaho!

While this home’s build cost will be close to traditional 2X6 cost of construction, it will be extremely energy efficient using 1/3 of the typical energy costs!

This home features a ICF (insulated concrete form) to aid in insulating the home from energy loss, will be solar PV ready, and is expected to only use 10 solar pv panels to handle the home’s electrical energy load. This is just one example of how we can combine renewable energy technologies to bring your home beyond net zero!

We would love the chance to talk with you more about what we do in person!
Please stop by to learn about building with Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF) and how solar thermal radiant floor heating and cooling can help you save on your home energy costs!

What Will The 2017 Solar Eclipse Mean For You?

The world is abuzz with the news of the upcoming solar eclipse, especially here in Idaho! And with good reason, it’s been almost 40 years since there has been a full solar eclipse here in the United States; as that last time just skimmed several states this is a real event to witness!

For centuries an eclipse of the sun was a frightening event that caused panic and fear through the masses before it was understood. In old days Native American tribes told stories of a great bear that would come every so often and take a bite out of the sun, whereas the ancient Chinese believed he sun was being swallowed by a dragon. Even in modern times people can be superstitious about a solar eclipse – but we’re here to tell you that there is no reason to worry, especially if you’re a Renewable Energy NW solar thermal customer! Learn more about how solar thermal works…

You see our technology is true solar thermal; that means it works great even on cloudy days! Thankfully our systems are also backed up by great water heaters as part of our whole home holistic approach to solar HVAC; even if the eclipse were to last for most of the day instead of just a few minutes our customers would still have plenty of hot water to serve their needs.

Sun eating bears? Hungry dragons? Don’t panic! You can put those boogeymen of old to rest and cut your energy costs by as much as half with modern comforts like the very best services from us. Call 208-577-6537 today to get your free site estimate!
