“The most difficult obstacle to selling a solar system is educating the customer,” said Solar Bawabeh, president and co-founder of Solar Rainbow. “Once they realise that they can protect the environment while getting a great return on investment, they begin to move forward. Companies can take advantage of the 100% bonus depreciation of the system cost in the first year, as well as, a 30% Federal Cash Grant. Additionally, there is also an income stream of SRECS and Electricity savings.”
