FAQs

What sustainable electrical services do you offer in Allardt?

We provide a full suite of green-energy solutions tailored to the Allardt area, including rooftop and ground-mounted solar PV systems, battery storage for backup and peak-shaving, Level-2 and Level-3 EV charging stations, high-efficiency LED lighting retrofits, smart-home energy management, and comprehensive residential and commercial energy audits. All work is completed by Tennessee-licensed electricians and backed by performance and workmanship warranties.

How much can I save by switching to solar energy in Allardt?

Savings depend on roof size, shading, and annual usage, but a typical 7 kW home array in Allardt can offset 70–100 % of your yearly electric bill. With TVA’s retail net-metering, every excess kilowatt-hour you export earns a bill credit equal to the rate you pay. Over 25 years a homeowner can save $25,000–$40,000, achieve a payback in 6–9 years, and lock in predictable power costs even as utility rates rise about 3 % per year.

Are there incentives or rebates available for sustainable electrical upgrades in Allardt?

Yes. The Federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC) currently lets you deduct 30 % of the cost of solar and battery installations. TVA’s Green Connect program offers $1,000 per home or $2,000 per commercial project that meets their renewable standards. Tennessee exempts renewable-energy equipment from state sales tax and provides a partial property-tax abatement on the added value. Agricultural and rural businesses in Fentress County may also qualify for USDA REAP grants covering up to 50 % of project costs.

What does the installation process look like and how long will it take?

1) Free site assessment and usage analysis (1–2 days). 2) System design, energy modeling, and quote (3–5 business days). 3) Permitting with the City of Allardt and TVA interconnection approval (2–4 weeks). 4) On-site installation—usually 1–3 days for a residence, 5–10 days for a commercial system. 5) Final electrical inspection and utility meter swap (about 1 week). You are then live and producing clean power. Throughout the process we assign a single project manager so you always know whom to contact.

Do you offer financing options for sustainable projects?

Absolutely. We partner with regional credit unions to provide $0-down solar loans up to 20 years at competitive fixed rates. Commercial clients can utilize Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) or power-purchase agreements (PPAs) that require no capital outlay. For smaller upgrades such as LED retrofits, we offer on-bill financing through participating utilities, letting you pay for improvements with a portion of the monthly energy savings.

How do you ensure your solutions are environmentally friendly and code-compliant?

We specify Tier-1, low-carbon-footprint solar panels certified by EPEAT and ISO 14001 manufacturers, and we recycle all packaging and end-of-life components through R2-certified facilities. Every installation follows the 2023 National Electrical Code, TVA interconnection standards, and Allardt building regulations. Our electricians are NABCEP-certified, we carry $2 million in liability insurance, and we provide a 10-year workmanship guarantee plus manufacturer warranties up to 25 years on major equipment.
