Economic Benefits

Every kilowatt generated on-site is a kilowatt not purchased from your current electric utility. Our solar photovoltaic (PV) systems directly reduce energy consumption from the electrical grid, eliminating fuel surcharges, taxes, and peak demand charges associated with grid-supplied energy. Secure Futures’s solar equipment leases and power purchase agreements provide consistent pricing and escalation fur the duration of the contract at a rate lower than historic grid-supplied energy increases. This, in turn allows customers to lower, control, and plan for a significant portion of their future energy bill expenditures.

Daytime Electric Usage Curve

A PV system generates peak power during the same hours as peak demand for most institutional users. This peak generation directly reduces peak consumption, and for some users can affect their yearly rate for both peak and non-peak usage.
