PV systems power the international space station and hundreds of satellites transmitting TV signals and cell phone calls. PV is an elegant, sophisticated, and reliable technology that now powers many homes. Yours could be next! A 1.5 kW PV system can save homeowners approximately $250 per year at current Colorado electricity rates. In the Roaring Fork Valley, solar electric systems are net metered. That means when your solar system is producing more energy than your home is using, your meter will spin backwards. When your home uses more than your system produces, your meter will spin forward, but at a slower speed. You are only billed for the "net" usage: (Electricity bill = Kilowatt Hours from the utility - Kilowatt hours from solar.)
