guiding the research

Every smart consumer prefers to be well informed but when it comes to solar doing the research can be a challenge.  The internet can be a battlefield of internet trolls and misinformation, making it very challenging to get accurate information.  Rest easy, we'll provide a list of some good starting points for your solar research.  

The Energy Sage website offers accurate information but it's not perfect.  The only issue with Energy Sage is that they've monetized their website by selling leads to solar installers so while you're on the site you'll battle pop ups asking you to get a solar quote.  You can easily avoid the requests by scrolling to the bottom of the page and finding the topics you like to research. You can click here to go to Energy Sage today.

Solar Reviews is much like Energy Sage in that they provide great content, but they too have monetized their site by selling solar quote requests to local solar installers.  Once again scroll to the bottom of the page and you'll find common topics such as solar panels, a dedicated blog, and other valuable information.  You can definitely get valuable information on this site and it's not difficult to avoid the requests for an estimate if you're not ready for one.  Click here to go to Solar Reviews now. 

The Solar Energy Industries Association, also known as SEIA.ORG is a good content-based sight without the aggravation of being asked to get a solar quote.  So, you can get valuable information without being asked to get a solar quote for your home.  This site offers a wider net of solar information as it's not specifically about rooftop solar where as energysage.com and solarreviews.com are more geared towards residential rooftop solar.  To start researching solar with SEIA, click here now.   

The U.S. Department of Energy can be a great resource for energy facts and data, and they have a page for Solar Energy.  The U.S. Department of Energy Solar Energy Technologies Office (SETO) has developed online resources to help those who want to go solar or who work with solar energy. From someone who’s looking to add solar to their roof, to someone whose job requires them to understand solar, the web resources in this section will help everyone understand solar energy.
