According to a recent Roper survey commissioned by Sharp Electronics Corporation, nearly 90% of Americans think that solar electricity should be an option for all new home constructions.
The Solar Synapse pre-wire kit is part of an overall program designed to empower homeowners to add energy efficiency in the future. The kit, installed during construction, will prepare a new home for adding photovoltaic solar panels (electricity) at some future date. The program includes marketing materials to help the builder sell pre-wire kits and provides a post-purchase activity for the new homeowner.
After closing, new owners can go to the Solar Synapse site to register their kit. They will receive a copy of ‘The Homeowner’s Guide to Renewable Energy,’ plus they qualify to receive a Modern Energy Plan from Solar Night Industries (SNI) for their home. The Modern Energy Plan is a customized plan that will tell them the cost to complete the total solar system, plus, educate the consumer regarding the incentives in their area.
Tim Corbet, CEO of Solar Night, said: We feel the Solar Synapse is a unique solution for builders who seek to differentiate their business and attract the mainstreaming green market. Education is an important aspect of our business model and we believe this program teaches builders about the potential of using modern energy solutions as a best-practice, and educating the homeowner regarding their options.
