Host Comments
Installing solar and coupling it with our Tesla Model S has enabled us to further offset our carbon footprint and helps us walk out some of our core values and beliefs. Solar City (www.solarcity.com) and PureEnergies (pureenergies.com) have been fantastic partners in the acquisition and installation process and our system has performed above expectations. We highly recommend solar for your home! Genesis 2:15 – The Lord God put the man in the Garden of Eden to take care of it and look after it. Now that we have had the solar system for over a year, we can see that the system has performed almost exactly as predicted. You can view a PDF of the perfomance data here.
