Benefits of Residential Solar-Powered Systems
In addition to a residential solar power system being an economical and safe investment, Yakima and Washington State homeowners can benefit from installing solar power thanks to:
WASHINGTON NET ENERGY METERING
Washington State Net Energy Metering Law allows PV solar power system owners to bank excess electricity back to the utility company at retail rates, for a credit to the owners’ accounts. When a Yakima or Washington State residential solar power system generates more electricity than is consumed by the home, such as during a sunny afternoon, the extra electricity is sent back the utility grid, and the utility company credits the system. Please contact Solora Solar to learn more about feed in tariffs.

SOLAR POWER HOMES APPRAISE HIGHER
A Yakima or Washington State residential solar power system will increase your home’s property value immediately! According to the Appraisal Institute, for every $1 reduction in annual electric bills due to the installation of a residential solar power system, your home’s value will increase by about $20.
For example, if you spend $26,000 on a solar power system for your home from Solora Solar, after a Washington State solar power rebate and tax credits, this system may save you around $3,000 in first year energy expenses, which equates to an immediate increase of $60,000 in the resale value of your home. That is more than double your initial investment and immediate equity in your home!
SOLAR POWER HOMES ARE MORE MARKETABLE AND SELL FASTER!!
A residential solar powered home is easier to market and sells faster. According to the LA Times, there is a bright spot in the current slow residential real estate market: Residential Solar powered homes are outselling homes with traditional electrical systems.

When it comes time to sell your solar powered home, you will have your significantly reduced or zero cost electric bills to show potential home buyers. Homes with a residential solar power system have significant sales leverage over homes offering only traditional electrical systems for sale in your area because homebuyers love the idea of having lower monthly bills!

While solar power usage is seeing a boom in business across the world, local acceptance and growth is surging as well. By positioning ourselves among the leading solar contractors in the state, as well as the nation, we’ve been consistently named to an annual list published by a well-recognized source of information in the solar industry. Solora Solar has achieved a top 10 ranking in the State of Washington for 2014 and 2015, and since its founding in 2011 has grown and installed over 2 million watts of solar.
Compiled and published by Solar Power World, the Top 500 Solar Contractors List seeks to identify outstanding solar contractors from the United States and Canada and recognize them for the work they’ve completed. The list also serves as a reminder that these companies have a direct impact on the growth of their local economy, providing new jobs in an exciting industry, as well giving consumers of electricity options and choices regarding delivery of their power.
Solara Solar is a key contributor to a constantly growing and changing market segment that, according to extensive research, will continue to grow year over year. Research indicates that while the production of solar electricity continues to see the majority coming from large or utility-scale plants, the greater number of installations are coming from companies like Solara Solar, bringing clean energy options to the public.
The price of solar energy equipment has been significantly reduced in the last 5 years. With the combination of price reduction, increase in cost of energy and available incentives — it makes much more economical sense to do solar now rather than later, particularly for commercial entities, mainly due to additional tax benefits that business can qualify for.
Solora Solar recently has worked on two significantly important projects for two particular market segments — home builders and the farming community.
