Thinking about going solar?
• Do your homework. Research various solar power systems and installation options before investing.
• Assess whether your property is a good site for solar. In general, you will need an open rooftop
space or land that is free of shade for at least five hours per day.
• Investigate local building codes, zoning ordinances, covenants and special regulations pertaining
to solar power systems.
• Check with IEC to determine the requirements and costs for connecting your system to the grid.
• Most likely you still will have an IEC electric bill each month.
• IEC’s interconnection process and approval can take up to 30 days and must be done before a
build. Be sure and include this pending time in your timeline when installing.
