Saving on bills with solar panels

Solar Panels

7 September, 2014

Dear Sir,

Having visited Bermuda 47 times over the past 40 years I enjoy looking at your colourful homes with the gorgeous white roofs, but you need solar panels up there too.

Electricity is very expensive here on Long Island, so six months ago I leased solar panels. Even with running my AC unit, I used no kilowatts last month. My bill was $12.67, and that was only fees.

I lease the panels for less than $90 per month.

Actually, I ran up an excess of kilowatts in my energy credit balance. Can you imagine?

And no, I am not in the solar business. Just a tip from a long-time friend.
