With utility electric rates set to rise again and costs of solar continuing to drop, solar electricity is looking better and better. Who doesn't want to cut ties with the electric company and generate some or all of their power? Historically, upfront cost has been a barrier to going solar. Thanks to a new program offered by ReVision Energy, that's no longer the case.

Through a partnership with SunPower, manufacturer of the world's most efficient solar electric panels, ReVision is now able to offer a solar loan up with terms up to 20 years and with rates as low as 5.24%. Using the program, a typical 3.7kw solar electric system for the home will cost about $26/mo - about as much as a newspaper subscription! All the while that system will generate clean electricity, offset C02, and reduce your payment to the power company.

Solar electric systems have zero moving parts, which means reliability and durability -- the panels have an expected useful lifetime of 40-50 years with little to no maintenance. Once the solar loan is paid down, you have an income stream, in the form of free energy from the sun, right on your rooftop for 20+ years. And as electricity rates increase (they have been by 4-5% per year), the investment pays itself off more quickly. In today's market, solar electricity may be the only guaranteed ROI out there!
