Insurance and solar

A quick interesting snippet: What is an acceptable insurance rate for solar panels ?

Insurance companies do not seem really prepared about solar panels: they often don't discriminate between hot water or photovoltaic plants, and rates offered are hectic.

Bottom line...call your insurance reps and get an idea of how your agent covers your solar installation.

This is one company that insures solar and wind: SOLARINSURE

Solar Energy Insurance
Renewable Energy Insurance
Companies, individuals and businesses are all being encouraged to re-think their power sources and integrate or convert to renewable energy sources. With the ever growing concerns on the planet using renewable sources of energy such as bio diesel, ethanol and fuel cells as well as alternative energy devices like solar panels, wind turbines, geothermal are becoming more and more popular.

This is a great opportunity for you to expand or start a small business in small construction and installation. To comply with law it is imperative that you have appropriate insurance cover.

This has meant that insurance companies have had to become 'alternative energy friendly', providing competitive renewable energy insurance premiums to cover these different systems including


* Risk Management

* Solar Installers

* Solar Farms

* Solar Arrays

* Solar PPA Insurance



Few insurances companies have actively embraced this need. Others have chosen to ignore these customers by either refusing to provide insurance cover or charging overly high prices for premiums. Not so with us-our insurance policies are tailored specifically with your business in mind.

Finding a renewable and alternative energy friendly insurance company like ours is a must-you can ill afford not to have insurance cover.

I do not push or endorse any company listed in this article.

Bottom line, start by calling your standard home insurance company. Solar Savior pushes emergency power systems so our solutions do not usually need dramatic alterations to your home. In most cases, our panels can be mounted by a bungee cord :) Right now as I write this article I am using my Solar Savior to light my room because we are having a torrential downpour. :)
