EXPLORE THE DATA

Families shouldn't have to choose between paying their electric bill or paying their rent or mortgage.

On Oahu, electricity has raised to $ 0.44 per kilowatt.  A typical 10kW* solar system costs about $275 per month and can produce about $571 of electricity per month, an instant savings of $296 per month. 

The monthly savings on 1,000 roofs would infuse over $3.55 million per year into the homes in our community that need it the most. 

The environmental offset of 1,000 solar roofs over 25 years equals 405,000 barrels of oil and 195,000 tons of CO2.**

*A 10kW system is the most common system installation through the GEM$ program
**These figures are based on a loan at 5.5% for 20 years. The production data is directly from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) for Waianae, HI 96792.
