Solar Systems in Nebraska and Iowa are reliable, practical and affordable. Omaha is home to a cadre of solar enthusiasts that service existing systems, design new installations and remodel residential or commercial properties throughout the Midwest.
Most solar systems in the Midwest were installed in the 1980's. The majority of them are still operating today - proving their reliability. These systems were simple designs for easy field repair or self service. The practicality of the systems are further demonstrated by their continued energy savings. Today, these systems have been made more affordable by the Federal Tax Credit. The installation costs and equipment are currently providing the most rapid return on investment in 20 years.
Solar System Repair and Service in Iowa and Nebraska
Repair of solar systems is usually preferred rather than removal. Although there are a wide variety of solar systems installed in the Midwest, components are commonly available for repair or replacement. See "Contact Us" for more information.
New and Used Equipment
There are new warm air and hot water collectors available.
There are a number of used solar collectors, components and systems in stock. The solar collectors are in good condition (see "Collectors" for more information). Most solar components can be ordered and some are custom made. The type of system to design is variable according to intended use.
Solar System Design, Installation and Energy Consulting
Design services are available for individual systems in homes, commercial, and process heat applications. Installation can be contracted for complete project management or advisory. Additional energy audits, survey evaluations and financial packages for commercial projects are always welcomed. Assistance in residential financing is available upon request.
New construction or retrofiting an existing home is a practical method of installing solar. These systems can add value to your home or enhance commercial property. For more information about remodeling or new construction with solar - see the "Solar Overview".
Typical Placement of Solar Collectors
Solar collectors are along the top of the roof line, facing South.
They can also be mounted on the side.

Wind Systems, Cogeneration, and Biomass
There are applications where solar is not appropriate or is only part of the solution. There have been steady advancements in technology for wind, cogeneration and biomass. These renewable energy services are very important to the healthy energy future of the Midwest, where almost all energy is imported from outside the region.
Projects are evaluated based on their location, appropriate technology, estimated power or thermal return on investment and demands for energy. Services can be networked nationaly for project backing and implementation.
Solar and Renewable Energy Tax Credit for Commercial and Residential
There currently is a tax credit available for residential and commercial solar and renewable energy applications. This is a Federal program and there are special conditions for qualifying. Homeowners can qualify for up to 30% with both solar electric and solar thermal. There is a $2000 maximum on each application. Commercial applications can carry credits forward, backward or use allocations through a variety of incentive arrangements.
