Who is Bright Light Solar?

Solar energy used to be an unknown topic. It was something that appeared in textbooks but was rarely seen in day-to-day life. Now, you can easily spot solar panels on homes, businesses, and commercial locations. There are even solar powered electronics like radios, flashlights, and chargers. With solar energy becoming a popular alternative to traditional energy sources, Bright Light Solar is here to help fulfill residential and commercial solar energy needs.

Over the past 5 years, Bright Light Solar has been installing and servicing solar thermal and electric systems for residences, municipalities and small businesses. Installing such systems can reduce reliance on fossil fuels, cut energy costs, and increase the value of the home or business. Some projects Bright Light Solar has completed include an installation for a local Laundromat that reduced the business' electric bill by 90% and an installation for a residential property that made it an Energy Star “net zero” home.

Some common misconceptions around solar energy and its installation include:

• It’s too expensive!
• I’ll never live long enough to see the project pay off.
• It doesn’t work in New Hampshire.

There are substantial rebates available that can help to cover up to 50% of the initial costs of installation. The size of the installation affects the length it takes to pay off. But with the substantial reduction seen in energy costs, some projects pay-off in as little as two years. Also, once the project has paid for itself, there are no more costs involved to feed the system. Whereas once a new conventional water heater is paid for, the customer is still left with the costs to feed the conventional system with oil, propane, or electricity. Finally, although it may not seem like New Hampshire got a lot of sun this year, New Hampshire actually gets more sun than the #1 solar energy consumer, Germany.

There are many, many benefits to switching to solar energy. This process can seem overwhelming and leave the customer with a lot of questions. Bright Light Solar is here to help. We can perform a Solar Evaluation that will determine total system cost, rebates available, the net cost, ROI, pay off time frame, and projected total savings for 15 years.
