It is our business to guide you, the customer, through the maze of obstacles to a goal of some measure of energy independence. We will help you take advantage of all the energy Mother Nature gives us for free. She can supply all your needs, should you want to go that far, or any amount in between. There are numerous factors that bear on the results. You cannot just install a system and be completely satisfied with the results. Off-the-Grid strives to achieve safety first, value second, then complete customer satisfaction. Grid-Tie without battery back-up is the least complicated and the least expensive. This approach uses a simple design and requires no lifestyle adjustment, but yeilds the LEAST return on investment in our opinion. A battery-backup will easily integrate into this system, but this addition will increase the cost. A stand-alone system is usually the most expensive, however, it does not have to be. This depends mainly upon your available resources, budget and lifestyle. Conservation measures are critical in this instance, if you have a limited budget. The complexity and cost of the system are directly related to the changes to lifestyle you may wish to make.
We have now developed a strategy whereby one can remain tied to the grid, but gradually build toward stand-alone status. The cost falls in between the other options. Lifestyle changes can be kept to a minimum, while the system expands as budget allows. In any scenario, conservation should be the primary emphasis.
The major decision to make is whether to go Grid-Tie (with or without battery backup), stand-alone, or somewhere in between. Our firm can design what you are looking for whatever your wants or needs may be. We stand ready to advise, in great detail, on all variables. We believe that once the general public gains experience with these techniques, no one will be satisfied with, nor want to return to, the status-quo. It can be difficult if not impossible to, in essence, pay your energy bill up front. The strategies we promote contain two great benefits. First, your monthly bill will not increase. Costs are known at the beginning and remain constant for the life of the system. No one can raise your bill on a whim. Second, and most importantly, the system can incorporate a modular, expandable design. We began our home base with one 120 Watt solar panel. We now have a 1 KW system, that in nine years has never failed... not even once. We are amazed at this level of dependability. The most gratifying moment came when the meter reader arrived. He looked at the solar panels and said, “I see now where your electricity comes from”. They thought we were hooked up illegally. We never understood that, since we are 1/4 of a mile away from any existing lines. Mother Nature and Off-the-Grid are ready to help with your energy needs.
We do not offer a percentage off, 0% financing, rebates, buy one get one free, or any other type of ridiculous incentive. We believe energy independence at some level, attained at a reasonable cost both now and in the future, and the peace of mind these bring, are plenty of incentive to take this approach!
