Energy Saving Tips

As a new or seasoned home solar panel system owner, you might wonder how to decipher your solar electric bills.

Depending on your system’s size, your bill is likely much lower than it used to be. In either case, it’s great that you’re saving any amount of money and living more sustainably at the same time.

However,

President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) into law on August 16, 2022. This historic bill covers several issues impacting American lives today but is anchored by clean energy and climate-related investments totaling nearly $370 billion.

There is a lot to unpack in the 730-page document, ranging from corporate tax law to drug price mandates to

Performance monitoring is a crucial but often overlooked part of owning a solar or solar + storage system. After installation, it’s normal to be curious about whether your SunPower® solar power system is working properly and how much energy it’s producing. Here’s what you need to know about monitoring your system using mySunPower.

Freedom Solar Power is committed to providing our customers with expert knowledge on how to optimize their Tesla Powerwall during an outage. We also want to help them understand their energy consumption.

Backup batteries can often seem mysterious, so we’re breaking down the formula to make the Powerwall work for you.

Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly popular in the U.S. and around the world for their environmental and performance benefits. Meanwhile, manufacturers are launching plug-in EV models across their fleets.

Whether you own an EV or are interested in purchasing one, there’s a fair chance you’ll also be in the market for a home charging port for your EV

Most people know of solar power and its status as a “green energy.” But fewer people know about the specific environmental and public health benefits of solar power. They are more substantial than you might think.

How does solar power impact greenhouse gas emissions? How does it affect the ground and water supplies? How can solar energy benefit your

The electric vehicle (EV) industry is booming beyond the passenger car market. Public transit buses, trucks of all shapes and sizes (including long-haul semis) and even large tractor trailers are using electricity to power up. 

Here’s a look at the current and expected reality of charging an EV at public stations on the road and at home. 

Determining who makes the best solar panels can be challenging, especially with the proliferation of solar companies over recent years.

In this article, we present the most important considerations to evaluate the quality of solar panels and share recent findings from third-party review sites.

You can use several criteria to evaluate the quality of solar panels:

• Efficiency

Colorado State University (CSU) in Pueblo is the first university in the state to reach net zero energy. That’s thanks to the newly installed CSU solar project on campus.

CSU announced the completion of its on-site solar project on Aug. 19, 2021, in partnership with Johnson Controls, Capital Dynamics and Black Hills

Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly common as the world learns more about climate change and renewable energy. And with EVs comes the need to charge them. Here’s what we at Freedom Solar have to say on the topic of solar-powered EV charging stations. 

An EV station is also known as an EV charger,

The agriculture industry requires an immense amount of resources, including water and energy. The EPA reports that 24% of total greenhouse gas emissions come from agriculture, forestry, and other land use, and around 70% of total water consumption is for irrigation purposes. 

It’s reasonable that agriculture businesses and individual farmers are looking for ways to make their processes

Energy efficiency means using less energy — and therefore paying less money — to achieve the same level of comfort in your home.

These days, that means using technology and changing your behavior to use electricity and water more efficiently. As a result, you lower your monthly utility bills while helping the environment.

How do you reap the benefits? Let’s
