Turnkey Solar Energy Systems
Solar energy systems, providing free electricity and heat, might seem a "no brainer" in the Southwest. New Mexico is blessed with an average 310 days of sunshine per year, so a modest solar system can produce as much renewable energy as a larger system would in other parts of the world. Going solar reduces our dependence on foreign oil and cuts pollution. Using renewable energy increases our national security and prosperity for all.
But implementing a reliable and efficient solar energy system still begins with technical knowledge and experience. Besides efficient system design and building practices, there's the utility’s interconnection process, integration with the structure, and familiarity with state and federal renewable energy tax incentives. At 310 SolarSM, our people have the skills and the exerience to make the purchase and integration of solar systems as simple as possible.
When we say “turnkey,” we mean that we guide you through the entire process — education, structure analysis, efficiency considerations, permitting, incentives and pricing, interconnection, inspections — the whole 9 yards. Whether you're a homeowner, home builder , architect, or facility manager, 310 Solar is your premier supplier of solar energy systems.
Talk to the Solar Energy Design and Build Experts
New Mexico sunshine provides endless free renewable energy and we can help you get it.
We have all the licenses, background, and know-how to handle any job, no matter how complicated or what other trades need to be involved in the process. If we don’t have the expertise in-house, we can contract it under our GB-98 so that you only have one point of contact.
Once you contract with 310, we will walk you through the process and won’t stop until your solar system is up and saving you money. Among our principals, we have many decades of construction background and experience. Every installer is different, and while there are many excellent installers in New Mexico’s solar community, we believe 310 is unique in bringing a construction industry approach and background to this resurgent field.
310 average days of sunshine mean more energy from smaller solar systems.
At 310 SolarSM, we believe that solar power generation by the end-user will be a large part of a genuine revolution in the way the country produces and uses energy. The realities of climate change, the worsening energy crisis, the national security challenges created by years of bad energy policy, and the undisputed need for greater energy independence are factors that have already begun to shape the economics of energy, and we are proud to be part of the revolution.
310 SolarSM offers "Total Energy Solution"
"Total Energy Solution" finds energy waste using infrared photography.
Efficiency is the key!
Solar systems are only as good as the efficiency of the structure that they support. 310 SolarSM is the only installer in the region that approaches every job as a "Total Energy Solution" in conjunction with our energy efficiency professional partners.
"HERS" – Home Energy Rating System
310 SolarSM will work with local energy professionals to perform a complete "energy audit" on your home or business. That is a top-to-bottom evaluation of your energy usage and efficiency using a certified Home Energy Rating System, or "HERS" rater. A HERS Energy Audit identifies ways to increase efficiency, improve indoor air quality, and save you money.
After performing the audit, they will draft a complete report that catalogs everything they have identified to improve efficiency, including infrared photos like the one above to graphically demonstrate where your energy dollars are literally leaking out, summer or winter. This is incredibly important in tackling the total energy solution because the more efficient the structure, the less you need to spend on a properly sized solar system.
You'll probably be surprised at just how much money this can save. To see what HERS raters do in more detail, check out the website for local HERS rater Walker Energy Services.
Unlike some energy audits, we won't just hand you the list so you can spend your weekends searching Lowe’s or Home Depot for insulation, caulking and thermal tape. We eliminate that headache and do whatever it takes to get your home or business into shape to get the most benefit from your solar system.
