SolarInsure Creates Most Comprehensive Solar Calculator in the industry

COSTA MESA, CA, September 17, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- SolarInsure, a green energy insurance brokerage in Southern California, has created a comprehensive solar calculator that allows industry specialists and customers the ability to calculate the cost of going solar in a matter of minutes. For the first time, an individual has the ability to evaluate not only the cost, but also the governmental benefits provided by both federal and state governments, and local utility companies and municipalities for installing solar panels.

The solar calculator is a simple web applet that can be shared across the internet. Written in JavaScript, any solar panel installer can add it to their site by simply copy and pasting a line of code. Customers can then use the calculator by entering their zip code, choosing their electric company and entering their average monthly electric bill. The resulting information is the cost of installation followed by all the benefits provided in their area.

These benefits, also called solar incentives, are provided by the government to promote the use of alternative energies. The federal government provides tax incentives, while some state and utility companies provide cash rebates. For instance, in California there is $3 billion in incentives for solar-energy projects with the objective of providing 3,000 megawatts (MW) of solar capacity by 2016.

The solar calculator is located on SolarInsure's website at http://www.solarinsure.com/solar-energy-calculator. The calculator is readily available to the public and is free of cost. SolarInsure is one of the first and largest alternative energy insurance brokerages in the United States.
