While building their new home, this Amity, OR couple took the opportunity to install solar panels and battery backup.
With an expected $200+ utility bill from Portland General Electric (PGE) each month, the Amity, Oregon couple knew solar panels and battery backup were the right move.
With their new solar panels, they will produce nearly 100% of their power from solar. And with their new battery backup system, they be safe from power outages. Plus, they can used the stored energy to charge their electric vehicles (EVs)! With their EV charger, they’ll save EVEN MORE by fueling their car directly from the solar panels!
With their new solar panels and battery backup, plus EV vehicles, the couple will save an estimated $25,000 on energy bills in the first 10 years. That’s upwards of $60,000 over the next 25 years. That’s not including fuel savings from their EV charger! And as energy prices continue to increase, those savings will only grow bigger and bigger.
If utility prices keep rising at they rate they have been recently, that savings can compound even higher! This is especially true in the Eugene, OR area, which has been installing more and more solar. This has meant millions in energy savings for those Eugene families and businesses.
