We do different solar installations and provide consultations for both residential and commercial clients. Continue browsing through our website to learn more about the systems we offer.
Grid-Tied Systems
This is the best way to benefit from clean, renewable energy while benefiting from the convenience of the power grid. Your utility company will credit your account with each kWh your solar array produces. When your system produces more power than you are using, that excess power will be credited to your “kWh bank” account and then used to offset your usage when you are not producing as much. Over 90% of today’s photovoltaic systems are grid-tied systems.

A battery backup system consists of a small battery bank that will store electricity to power your “critical load” when the grid goes down. This gives you the benefit of a grid-tied system, with the peace of mind of battery backup power as well.
The direct current (DC) power is produced by your photovoltaic (PV) panels, stored in batteries, then converted to alternating current (AC) power by the inverter, and consumed when needed. You will produce all of your electricity, independent of the grid. Off-grid systems are perfect for remote locations or where it is very costly to have grid power brought to a house or farm building.
Acland Energy Consultants designs and installs commercial PV systems ranging in size from 20 kW to 1 MW. Large homes, small farms, and commercial buildings can use a tremendous amount of electricity. Fortunately, large buildings that have a lot of roof space or a ground array can also provide optimal collection. Solar can be an excellent investment for a business, with the solar array paying for itself in 5 years due to business-friendly incentives.
Follow the sun into the future! The AllEarth Solar Tracker features a dual-axis mount with built-in GPS technology for automatic calibration and consistent angling toward the sun. By collecting all the day’s solar potential, it yields up to 45% more energy than a fixed roof system.
