California was nicknamed the Golden State because of the bountiful amounts of the precious metal found here, but the state has even more valuable golden resource-abundant sunshine! The sun is THE ultimate source of all renewable energy. At Go Solar Now, Inc., we know how to effectively harness the sun's energy and use it to create electricity, heat water, and more! From solar panel installation to solar water heaters, we have you covered. At Go Solar Now, we specialize in all types of solar energy.

Incorporated in 2010, our individual experience dates back to the solar hot water days of the late seventies. Having installed hundreds of solar electric and hot water systems in the greater Sacramento region since 2000 we are the go-to company for all of your local solar needs. We are California natives and we're committed to renewable energy and to our local community. We practice energy conservation and we use renewable energy in our homes. We know Solar because we LIVE Solar. To provide education, advocacy, and outstanding customer service to local energy users to facilitate the transition to renewable energy.

Electricity: Most of the electricity in the county is served from Sacramento Municipal Utilities District (SMUD). SMUD rates are lower than most other utilities in the state as of 2012. They also offer up to a $1,500 rebate for solar hot water where the existing water heater is electric. If you're existing hot water is natural gas, there is no rebate. The federal tax credit applies to solar electric and solar hot water installs, regardless of current hot water heaters or any other conditions. As a way to encourage solar electric systems in the community many cities in the county will issue solar electric building permits at no cost.

LEU has very high solar electric rebates, their rebates are issued in a "lottery type" fashion. Call us to get more information on the next dates they are accepting applications. Solar Hot Water has a fast payback, especially if you currently have an electric water heater. Most solar electric installs will be cash-positive from day one because of the current low equipment prices, tax credits, utility rebates and high utility rates.
