Webinar Series: Residential Solar ROI
Dates: Wednesday, October 8th at 3:00 PM and Wednesday, October 15th at 7:00 PM
Breaking Down The Costs, Savings, and Payback of Rooftop Solar in Maine
Join the Maine Solar Solutions team for a free webinar outlining the return on investment (ROI) of an average grid-tied rooftop solar array in Maine. In this live webinar, we will discuss:
- How a residential solar system works
- Maine’s net metering policy, including the accumulation and use of credits during the course of a typical year
- The design and considerations of an average residential solar system, including its cost, electrical production, and ROI timeframe
We will also offer 15 minutes for audience Q&A to address any remaining questions you may have once our presentation has concluded.
This presentation will be offered twice. Please register for the date and time that best fit your schedule. If neither date works for you, please register for one anyway, and we will send you the webinar recording to watch at your convenience.
