Two examples of solar-electric systems
The sun shines on almost every day and its energy is free for the taking with reliable equipment, properly designed storage and sufficient solar exposure. Radiance Corporation integrates renewable solar energy technologies when reasonable, practical and cost-effective. Depending on your personal taste, visual impact may be a serious consideration when determining to what extent solar energy is used in your project.
There are two basic categories of solar technologies: solar-thermal and solar-electric (eg. photovoltaic). Within these two categories are a myriad of choices, efficiencies, equipment manufacturers, system design parameters, specific features, building code interactions, and rebate possibilities that can make going solar a daunting and confusing prospect for most people. Going solar is not easy and that is why choosing to go with Radiance is your best first decision.
It has been said that when you are a hammer, everything looks like a nail. Unlike many other solar companies, Radiance is not tied to nor aligned with any particular solar equipment manufactuer. They will attempt to sell you the products that they
represent to bolster their own profit centers, whether or not they are the best fit for your project and budget. Rather, Radiance and its participating EPNetwork contractors are focused on delivering the best value renewable energy technology solutions for our customers, no matter the manufacturer or supplier. This is our custom-comfort promise.
Radiance relies on precise engineering and design practices to determine the parameters of your solar-thermal and solar-electric possibilities, paying close attention to economic realities and long-term maintenance issues. Radiance works closely with you, your Architect, and Builder to ensure that the solar component of your project will be aesthetically pleasing to your personal taste, will comply with local building codes, and is financially reasonable.
Once the solar component of your renewable energy system is solidified, Radiance will help you secure the best-value solar installer from among its particpating EPNetwork contractors, and guide you through the maze to secure the utility rebates and/or tax credits you may be qualified for. The important choices will be clearly defined so that you can make an informed solar energy decision, and we will assist you every step of the way.
