 Arizona's endless sunshine continues to make rooftop solar panels an enticing proposal for homeowners. Already, tens of thousands of Arizonans have installed panels to make electricity for them, and falling prices and new financing options continue to draw consumer interest.

New Reports: Renewables on the Rise

Clean energy technologies are booming across the country! This new report dives into renewable growth in each state. 

Since 2008, Arizona’s solar energy production has increased by 185 percent. Click here to learn more about renewable energy growth in Arizona. 
In recent news, the  Central Arizona Project (CAP)   made a huge commitment to the solar industry by signing a twenty-year Power Purchase Agreement with solar company AZ Solar 1. This will be documented as one of the lowest prices for solar power in the United States. Connecting Arizona’s most precious resource, water, with its most abundant resource, the sun, is an important step toward a clean energy future for Arizona.

The solar market has faced a variety of obstacles under the new administration. Earlier this year, tariffs were imposed on the industry that many were sure would threaten its growth. Though the tariffs introduced a few road bumps to the market, the solar industry is still going strong and is set to soar in many areas, including production and jobs. 

Why Solar Power is Perfect for Sunny Arizona
Home to the “Valley of the Sun” and part of the country’s sunbelt, Arizona is basking in sunshine for most of the year. Ranked by many sources as one of the top ten sunniest places in the world, it is clear why  Arizona is a great place for solar energy production . Our physical climate is perfect for a blossoming epicenter of solar power, but  our political climate  often holds us back from our full potential.  

Going solar is great! But have you ever wondered how solar power works? Learn more about it in this blog.
