Frequently Asked Questions

What can I do today to reduce my electricity use?

In a word, conserve! By far the most cost effective way to cut your power bill, as well as to leave a smaller footprint on the planet, is to conserve energy. Turn down your thermostat. Change your light bulbs. Eliminate your phantom loads. Purchase energy-efficient appliances. In general, every $1 you spend on conservation will save you $3 to $5 in the cost of a renewable energy system needed to produce that energy.

I'm planning to build a new home and incorporate renewable energy. At what point should I contact WSW?

The earlier the better! Incorporating renewable energy usage in your design plans from the beginning makes everything flow more smoothly in the end.

I think I want WSW to design and install a renewable energy system for me. What do I do now?

Contact us to schedule a Site Evaluation and Consultation (SA&C). The price is reasonable - $100 (travel time is extra off-Island) -- and is applied to future purchase.
