SOLAR SAVINGS IN COLORADO

Colorado is nicknamed the Centennial State because it became a state in 1876, 100 years after the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Home to the first cheeseburger, the first rodeo, the longest continuous street, the largest natural hot springs pool, and the world’s largest flat-top mountain, Colorado is not only a great place to visit, but also a great place to live. Home to almost 6 million people, the state is noted for its diverse landscape of mountains, canyons, rivers, desert lands, forests plains, and plateaus, as well as its environment-loving residents.

 

Colorado is also known for being a leader in sustainability and green initiatives. One of the most eco-friendly states in the nation, the Centennial State embraces solar and all the benefits it has to offer. It is one of the best states to make the switch to renewable energy, with solar rebates, tax exemptions and a great net metering program, homeowners in Colorado will save big when they put solar on their roof. Let’s jump into all the potential savings:

NET METERING

Colorado utilities companies have established effective net metering policies, allowing customers to save with any excess energy they produce. Xcel Energy offers the best net-metering program that allows you to use your excess production in two ways:

 

  1. Exchange your excess energy production for kilowatt-hour-based credits, which can be applied to future energy bills
  2. Receive a per-kWh cash payment

 

Through Colorado’s net metering policies, Colorado homeowners can get the most bang for their buck when installing solar. They can even make some money if they learn to make smart energy choices and cut their electricity usage.

LOCAL SOLAR REBATES

Many Colorado utility companies offer solar rebates that can save homeowners some big bucks. Here are two current examples:

Utility Company
Rebate Amount
Colorado Springs Utilities
$.20 per watt (after April 1, 2020 $.10)
San Miguel Power Association
$.25 per watt (max out at $750)
TAX EXEMPTIONS

In Colorado, any renewable energy equipment is sales, use, and property tax-free. Thus, you will not have to pay any additional fees to the government even though you are adding value to your home.

ENERGY SAVINGS MORTGAGE INCENTIVE FOR EXISTING HOMES

Any new home buyers who put solar on their roof are eligible for a state program that will help you pay for your mortgage for 120 days. By adding energy efficiency upgrades and a renewable energy system, you could qualify for $750-$3,000 in savings.

SHOULD I GO SOLAR IN COLORADO?

Less than 3% of the current U.S. population are enjoying the benefits and savings of solar energy. Our joy is knowing that our customers are saving money and reducing their carbon footprint. We want the same for you.

 

With the Federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC) of 30% and local incentives, Colorado residents are jumping at the chance to become a part of the renewable energy movement. We’re excited to help you throughout your solar journey and hope to help you make a positive impact on the environment while saving you thousands on your electricity bill!

We had a system installed by Blue Raven a year ago. I have been waiting for the year mark to post a review so I could make sure everything lived up... to the hype. As of now, I could not be happier with the service I have received from Blue Raven. My sales person was Rodolfo Chavez, he was prompt, courteous, honest and transparent with no pressure. He was referred to me by a family member who had purchased a system from him and was very happy and they were referred by a friend of theirs. I look for sales people who have referrals based business because you know then that they take good care of their clients. The work that Blue Raven did was spot on. They too were prompt, diligent and their communications regarding the process was great. From the time I signed the paperwork with Rodolfo to the end the process was easy and seamless. Rodolfo kept us in the loop throughout the permit process as well the install process. I could not be happier with my experience using Blue Raven for my Solar install.read more

Our sales rep, Jude, was patient and never pushy. He took time to answer questions and help us find information both about the solar installation and... the various rebates, tax credits, etc. Installation team was professional, prompt, and thoughtful around the house. Looking forward to the utility company "throwing the switch" soon. Warm commendation to Blue Raven. David Greenleeread more

“True to their word! Blue Solar was professional and dependable.

[The sales rep] held true to every word he said. He was dependable and reliable. The follow up is almost instantaneous and we couldn’t be happier. The service team that did the installation was courteous, on time and cleaned up any mess made. Literally felt like white glove service. We read other reviews and decided that Blue Raven was the perfect fit for us. Blue Raven should be very proud of the team that we interacted with. Excellent representation of their brand.”

“Free Power!!

When we bought our first home in Colorado we were keen on going as green as possible… We got a quote from another solar company, whose plan seemed poorly designed and would not produce 100% of our electricity usage. When we met with Blue Raven, it was a totally different story. The design made sense, and was estimated to cover 114% of our usage! Installation took only 1 day! As soon as March we saw the production numbers jump through the roof.

As of June 1 we’ve had 3 months of 100%+ production and our electric bill is as low as it can go (we are now only paying for the $15/mo utility connection fee). Blue Raven even pays the loan for the first 18 months to ensure you aren’t paying for electric and the loan simultaneously. Great service, great people, great system. No complaints!”

quotes

“We have been 1000% satisfied with our solar panel system. We were impressed with the knowledge that the sales rep had about the Blue Ray solar system. He answered all of our questions pertaining to the complete solar panel system and the financial advantages to us as owners. The system functions exactly as promised. We tell all of our family members and friends about our system and how much money we are saving. Our daughter liked what we told her about the advantages of installing a solar system on her home and she installed your panels on her home. They were very pleased with the system installed on their home. We were happy to receive a $250 check for referring to your company.”

“Very professional and easy to work with, without being pressured

I was approached by a number of solar companies to go “solar”, however the deals being offered by them required I sign there and then on the dotted line otherwise the deal would evaporate. Blue Solar allowed me to review the proposal and documents on my own time. When I had additional questions, they were happy to meet and clarify. At no time was I pressured into signing. Once I had signed the process was very easy, they dealt with the finance, HOA approval for installation. The Installation team were also professional. They walked me through the installation and how to operate the system, etc.”
