This can be virtually anywhere with many mounting options/methods available.  You need an open area of at least 400 square feet to consider Wind Turbines, however, the smaller wind turbines available (100 to 400 watt ratings only) can be roof-mounted without towers or guyed mounting poles, but it is not recommended. You also need a good wind site. If you chose wind only or fuel cells above, you may skip this section.

Questions About How You Plan To Purchase

Many residential and business location systems can now be installed for total costs ranging from $8,000 to $80,000 depending upon the size of the system you choose and the complexity of the installation. In California, the State's Buydown Rebate program, combined with ASAP POWER! eligible system offerings, immediately reduces your cash outlay by 50% or $4.50/installed watt. We carry the eligible rebate amount until the State pays us--that means no waiting for ASAP POWER! customers. In San Diego County, make it nothing down with our financing programs and your no-cost, no points, no closing, no appraisal, no-nonsense home equity loan.

With long term (15/30 year) financing, the net monthly cost of owning a renewable energy system can be less than your current electric bill, depending upon the system size, local electric rates, and availability of net metering.

ASAP POWER! Systems can include battery backup and can cost an additional $600 - $6000, depending upon how many days of autonomy you desire, system requirements, or backup power needs due to local conditions.

The current program with the California Energy Commission provides up to 50% right off the top of your installed system costs and up to $750 for battery purchase rebates if you have a battery backup with a PV grid-tied system.

19. How soon do you expect to be ready to purchase a renewable energy system? Now Within 3 months Within a year More than a year Don't know
