Understanding Solar Panel Options

At Ethos Green Power, we're passionate about tailoring solar solutions to meet your unique needs. Whether you're a farmer, a family, or a local business owner in Southwest Wisconsin, we have the perfect solar system to match your energy goals and lifestyle.

Grid-Tie Solar Systems

Stay connected to the power grid while becoming an energy producer! On sunny days, watch your meter “spin backwards” as you send surplus energy back to the grid through "net metering." It's like having your own mini power plant right on your roof.

Off-Grid Solar Systems

Embrace true energy independence! Perfect for remote locations or those seeking complete self-sufficiency. With a robust battery system, you'll store the sun's energy for use even when the stars are out. It's your personal energy oasis.

Battery Backup Systems

The best of both worlds for Southwest Wisconsin homes and businesses! Generate your own clean power, store some for later, and still have the grid as a safety net.

Important: Battery backup can be integrated with any solar setup, grid-tied or off-grid. It's all about giving you control over your energy future.


Factors to Consider Before Installation

Site Assessment

Before we start, we'll need to take a good look at your property. We'll assess roof condition and orientation, shading from trees or nearby structures, and available space for panels.


Don't worry if your situation isn't perfect – we're problem solvers, and we'll do our best to find a way to make solar work for you.


Energy Needs Assessment

We'll analyze your current energy usage and future needs. This helps us design a system that's just right – not too big, not too small, but just perfect for your home or business.
