Car companies may be jumping on the band wagon to sell solar panels and home charging units to power not just customers’ cars, but also their homes. You, however, don’t have to wait to buy a solar system for your home until you have an electric car.
If your electric bill increased significantly over the last few years, maybe you should check to see if it makes sense for you to install a solar system for your home. There are financing available (no equity, no appraisal) as well as government and electric company incentives and/or credits for homeowners. Contact us to find out more info.

SANTA MONICA, CA – Buyers of the upcoming Nissan Leaf electric vehicle may be seeing their dealers more often than they anticipate if plans being kicked around by the auto maker come to fruition.
As it prepares to begin leasing and selling its small Leaf EV late next year, Nissan North America Inc. sees dealerships as a one-stop shop for customers’ needs.

Dealers may be asked to offer a variety of lithium-ion car batteries to suit an individual’s driving requirements, sell solar panels for the customer’s house and recommend an electric company to install a home-charging unit, Mark Perry, director-product planning, says during a media event here.
