Kansas Solar and Wind is a great source of home energy. The Kansas plains have long been the breadbasket of America. So it’s no surprise that the same sun Kansas enjoys for farming provides an equally great resource for Kansas solar home energy. The vast plains allow winds to sweep steadily through giving Kansas very consistent winds that give Kansas a bright future for clean energy.
Kansas Solar and Kansas Solar Installer
Kansas Solar Incentives, Kansas Solar Rebates:
There are government incentives and resources available to Kansas residents for home solar projects. Your WindEnergy7 dealer can help with the forms and get you back 30% of your installed cost for a home energy system for your residence, farm, or ranch.
Kansas Net-Metering
Your WindEnergy7 solar energy system can run either off-grid, like a remote hunting cabin or water pumping station.. Or, it can run as a Grid-Tied system. Grid-Tie means your extra energy will actually run your meter backwards, forcing the utility company to buy your electricity from you, that’s called Net Metering.
Kansas House Bill 2844, passed in 2006, established net-metering rules for Kansas utilities. Net-metering is available for systems that generate 10kW or less. Net excess generation is credited to the customer’s next bill until the end of a 12-month billing cycle. After 12 months if you generate more than you use, you’ve just made a donation to your utility company (but it’s for a good cause since you’re using clean power). Reimbursement is however capped at 1% of the total number of kilowatt hours sold by the utility. This means that up to that 1%, customers are credited at the retail rate for the power they generate. Beyond the 1% cap, the utility reimburses customers at 150% of the wholesale rate.
EXAMPLE 4KW SYSTEM – HOME INSTALLATION COST
Kansas has a Great wind and solar rating. That means installing a wind/solar electricity system is a cost-effective, efficient means of generating power for your home. Installing a typical 4kW RoofMill system from WindEnergy7 in Kansas with installation would run about $20,500.
You would get back 30% of installed cost in Kansas with the tax credits available to you. Taking out the 30% makes average cost installed about $14,350. Recap $20,500 – 30% Tax Credit = $14,350
Fast ROI (return on investment) in home value. That 4.2kW system immediately provides an $15,600 estimated property value increase. So, from the date of installation your property value is increased dramatically. The system making your home a green home, great for the environment and pocket book, with emergency power, the ability to run off-grid if ever you need that. So, now we take out the immediate value in home improvement and property value and there’s already a positive ROI. Recap $20,500 – 30% Tax Credit = $14,350 – $15,600 in Property Improvement Value = $1,250 positive value. But that’s just the beginning, now there’s free electricity for atleast the next 30 years.
With your new system, you’d save each month on your utility bills, and your property value would go up too. The system should pay for itself in free electricity for your home, and you’d get to keep about 160 tons of greenhouse gasses out of the atmosphere in that time! Here are some other important details about your home energy system:
• Only 250 square feet of roof area required
• $15,600 estimated property value increase
• Utility bill savings over the next 30 years
