Customer Spotlight: Washington, DC

Christian and Erik Hoffland of Washington DC are currently having a solar power system installed on the roof of their house. The system is being installed by the company groSolar, and the system is a 3.04kw PV solar power system that will provide Christian and Erik with the majority of the electricity they need to power their house. The Hoffland’s want to have a solar power system installed on their house in Washington DC because they are trying to make their home a

LEED Platinum rated house

. There are not many LEED Platinum rated energy efficient houses out there right now which makes them very valuable. Adding a PV system to the roof of a house makes the house that much more valuable. If Christian and Erik every wanted to sell their energy efficient house they would most likely be able to get a good price for it. They choose to use groSolar as the installer because Erik is an architect and had used groSolar before on a previous project and thought they did a good job. 

There are many incentives, rebates, and tax credits for renewable energy that are available in the DC area. These incentives, rebates, and tax credits can significantly lower the price of a solar power system.
