Solar Power- Who Benefits

702-379-3401

“It’s a way to stay rich,” Buffett once said of utilities.

On May 2nd, in an article titled: Buffett vs. Musk: The clash of old and new energy titans, the Las Vegas Sun reported "In the balance — caught between the two billionaires and the army of lobbyists, experts and public relations professionals — are millions of people. They’re the power consumers who will be left largely responsible for picking up the tab."

We say, follow the money. There is no reason for power customers to be left paying higher prices for power. In January, Dave recorder the below video suggesting you follow the money to the Old School Nevada politics way of doing things. It's outrageous!


If you are considering selling your home with Solar panels already installed or are considering the purchase of a home and want to learn about the pros and cons of home ownership when solar is involved, give Dave a call. He would be happy to educate you on the current status of Solar Power and how it affects your home value and return on investment. 702-379-3401

Solar War- Nevada is Outraged Over Solar Power!

Really??? 

As quoted from NV Energy Website...

"Thinking of installing solar for your home or business? NV Energy welcomes your interest in customer-generated electricity also called distributed generation. We want to help reduce your energy bill — and your carbon footprint — with solar and renewable energy."

NV Energy welcomes interest in consumer- generated electricity? NO , Really... They welcome your money!





Politics and Solar Power Are Costing You More!

With the recent December 22nd Public Utilities Commission (PUC) decision and the signing of Senate Bill No. 374 it will actually cost solar customers more for electricity than those customers without solar!  In our recent blog, Politics and Solar Power are Costing You More, we gave you some stats and some recommendations to follow the money! Who owns the sun? Buffet does! And it's not right!

What will the Residential Renewable Tax Credit offered by the Government do for you? Likely not enough to see a big benefit. A recent Las Vegas Sun article points out homeowners will never be able to recuperate the cost of the solar panels saying "Our system will never pay for itself." The bait and switch is especially tough on homeowners who purchased solar before the PUC decision and rate increase. These Net Metered Customers (NEM Customers) are outraged and so are we!


Thomas Edison once said... "I’d put my money on the sun and solar energy. What a source of power! I hope we don’t have to wait until oil and coal run out before we tackle that." Well Tom, we may have to, if politicians don't get out of the way!




Who is this good for?

Is this good for the PUC? Their friends? Their bottom line? NV Energy? I can tell you, it's NOT GOOD FOR YOU!

You Can Do Something!

I encourage you to call the Governor! Call the PUC! You can do something!

Don't stand silent, make your voices heard?

Give me a call 702-379-3401 I would love to hear your thoughts!

Solar Outrage!

 

This is Crazy!

The Public Utility Commission (PUC) voted to kill solar power here in Nevada! With so many bright days in Nevada, there is no place better to have solar power! With an average of 294 sunny days a year, Nevada is missing out on a BIG opportunity to contribute to Green Energy!

https://youtu.be/QRld1XCB7YE
Why would they vote to kill it? Part of what makes this so crazy is two of the PUC members are lobbyist for NV Energy. NV Energy has a monopoly on power in Nevada and is owned Warren Buffet! It gets crazier... Warren Buffet donates to Democratic causes, such as Green Energy on the Democratic side of house, but with a mostly Republican government in Nevada, you have to ask "Why would Republicans kill a Green Energy Project?" Follow the Money! This is Outrageous!

 

This is old school Nevada politics at its worst!


Over 12,000 people in Nevada, who have opted for solar panels on their homes, will pay dramatically more for energy than those with out panels! This does not make since! There were over 3,700 solar installs in Vegas in 2015, and over 5,000 since 2009. This represents less than 2% of rooftops in Las Vegas, imagine the possibilities of Nevada being a Green Energy Contributor if it only made since for the homeowners to have it  installed! And what about those homeowners who were expecting what they were promised? Will they be "grandfathered in"? It does not look like it!

Warren Buffet once said "Honesty is a very expensive gift, don't expect it from cheap people."  Makes you wonder a bit doesn't it! Solar customers are not looking for a gift, they are simply looking to better the environment and for a return on what they have invested in.

Who is this good for?

Is this good for the PUC? Their friends? Their bottom line? NV Energy? I can tell you, it's NOT GOOD FOR YOU!

You Can Do Something!

I encourage you to call the Governor! Call the PUC! You can do something!

Don't stand silent, make your voices heard?

Give me a call, I would love to hear your thoughts!
