Then look to the intagibles. Like your network of friends, your going to want to share thoughts, ideas and suggestions that are well received and acted upon.

You are going to want to spend time with your installer, and the feeling of trust and respect needs to be ever- present.

Ontario's FIT Program for Large Systems ... Details at a Glance

Applicants to the Ontario Power Authority FIT program should plan on additional approval times ...

Solar outperforms most investment opportunities available today with a 10 - 12 % return rate, far exceeding GIC's and government bonds and avoids the volitility of the open stock market.

A Guideline to Industry Estimates of Residential Solar Prices

The average household uses about $1,245.00 of electricity per year at today's rates, while the average 18 panel solar system generates approx $2,766.00 in MicroFIT revenue per year.

Most average homes install a 2.0 kW to 2.5 kW system that comprise roughly 12 to 18 panels.

Each panel measures approx 3' x 5' in size, and can be installed in either landscape or portrait configurations.

Total system costs vary depending on size, roof type, mounting needs and location to the utility meter - yet industry estimates are approx $10k per kilowatt of generating capacity.

The more informed you are, the smoother your installtion will be.

How Does MicroFIT Work?

Actually it's quite simple. Power generated from your rooftop travels to a second meter that Sunrise will install, where it is recorded and registered under the 80.2 cent MicroFIT program. It then enters the original meter to be used either in the home if electricity is required or it travels to the grid for someone else to use.

Efficient. Responsible.

Finacially Rewarding.

MicroFIT systems must meet minimum requirements of 40% Ontario content if tied into the grid by Dec 31, 2010. Systems connected after this date are required to meet 60% content.
