According to the US Energy Information Administration, electric rates have risen historically by 4% annually over the last ten years and are projected to maintain that trend.

What does that mean for your business? As an example, if you paid $10,000 for your annual electric in 2010, you could expect to be paying $21,900 by the year 2030!

Because solar enables you to !x and predict your expenses, you have an opportunity to take action against rapidly increasing energy costs.
