6 Great Reasons Why Solar Energy Projects are a Safe Investment

 

 

1. Solar Saves Money
 

With the price of solar continuing to fall and the costs of fossil fuels rising, solar is poised to become a better investment all the time. It’s already outperforming the S&P 500 in 13 states in the USA, and major investors are taking note. And now, the chance to invest in solar is becoming even easier.  Contact your local Symtech Solar Authorized Installer for more information.Maybe you’re convinced by now that it makes sense to invest in a solar project. But if you need one more reason, we have a good one for you.

Say you invest in a project backed by a revenue-producing solar asset. How do you know the counter-parties to your investment will hold up their end of the deal? Like we said, nothing’s sure but death and taxes. However, the likelihood of the counter parties defaulting is low. Why? Well, they’re already paying their power bills (or they wouldn't qualify for solar). The solar system will lower their bills, making them even less likely to default. So solar not only lowers their bills -- it lowers your risk.

 
 

2. Sunshine is Free!  Endless Fuel from the Sky
 

Let’s face it: if the sun stops shining, we’ll have bigger problems than the safety of our investments. But all signs point to the sun shining for another 5 billion years. Most of us expect to recoup our investment before then.
The amount of sunshine can vary depending on where you are or what the weather is like, but as long as there is light (even a small amount) PV cells can still produce electricity.



3. Solar is a Proven and Reliable Technology

 

Solar panels have been around for a long time now and have proven their reliability. So when you put your money in solar, you’re not investing in the latest shiny object.
Some solar systems installed in the 1970s have lasted far beyond their warranties and are still producing. And while it’s not a new technology, improvements in recent years have made new systems even more reliable.

Solar is a relatively simple technology, with few moving parts. Solar panels are durable and require little maintenance. They’re easy to install. This all adds up to a low risk when it comes to solar technology.
 

 

4. Solar comes with Standards, Protections, and Warranties 

 

In case you’re still worried about your solar system or your investment in a solar project, Symtech Solar offer 25-year power warranties on the solar modules 15 years on the mounting systems, and 10 years on the inverters.  All products come equipped with local market safety standards.
5. Solar Projects are Tangible

Investing in a solar project is not the same as investing in a company’s stock. When you invest in a business, you can’t know how successful it will be. In the last 15 years the stock market is so mysterious and volatile that a company’s announcement of solid earnings can be met with a tumble in their stock price.


When you invest in a solar project, in contrast, you’re buying into a tangible/physical asset, an asset that depends on a proven technology using the sun that we know will always keep shining. That means the asset is likely to produce revenue right away, and to keep producing it for as long as the life of the system, in some cases being 50+ years.

If you put solar on your own roof, you can be confident that the PV array will produce power for you. And if you invest in a solar project elsewhere, you can have confidence that your investment is backed by a tangible, revenue-producing asset.

 

6. Fosters Independence

You're not required to connect to the power grid. You can be completely self-sufficient and live off-the-grid. If you enjoy hiking, backpacking, boating or like to use an RV there are even solar panels you can roll up and take with you.

Imagine never paying another monthly bill or hook-up charge.  Local application and independence from a centrally controlled power grid and energy transport infrastructure is insurance from upheaval through political and economic turmoil, and gives you flexibility where you locate your vacation home, or set up your remote office.
