TE is serving their customers at the leading edge of a market trend that makes it smart to produce green buildings...
from an operational standpoint, and an environmental one. Sending clean power onto the power grid brings the shrewd satisfaction of dramatically cutting power consumption costs while making both a regional and global impact.
Key solar energy advantages:
- limitless, free fuel
- no moving parts, systems are maintenance free
- long term viability
- no noise, hazardous material, or polluting emissions
- systems are modular and can be installed anywhere.
Solar power is the fastest-growing segment of renewable energy today, here's why:
Operational impact:
Green buildings are:
- cheaper to operate, profitable
- more valuable
- more competitive to lease
Local impact:
- Reduced grid load results in fewer new coal burning plants being built, a major logistical cost savings
- PV demand and market growth creates jobs and fuels economies
- continued investment helps sustain and expand the solar electricity sector
Global impact:
- Global use of solar energy protects the earth's climate by preventing the release of thousands of tons of CO2
- Solar energy contributes to a clean environment for future generations
- Reduces dependency on fossil fuels and other natural resources
- PV accessibility drives Socio-economical benefits for developing countries

Once a system is in place what can I expect?
Depending on location, a mere 10kW system can yield approximately $1,200 in energy savings annually*. After the relatively short 5 year payback period, assuming a conservative 5% energy cost escalation, the user will save $34,000 by year 6. Even for this modest system size, by the end of its lifespan at year 25, the cumulative energy savings would reach $48,000. Multiply this accordingly for a larger system for an even more substantial forecast.
