Energy Independence Starts Here

Solar can be a fantastic way to save on energy and use renewable power, but it isn’t ideal for every property. Factors like your roof condition, shading, and energy usage all affect your system’s performance. The best way to find out is to schedule a complimentary consultation with a Brda technician, who will evaluate your home and recommend the right solar solution.

Missouri homeowners can take advantage of the federal solar tax credit, net metering, property tax exemptions, and local utility rebates to reduce the cost of residential solar installation. For more details and eligibility, see ourMissouri Solar Rebates and Incentives blog.

Older or full panels may need an upgrade to safely support solar, batteries, or EV charging. Brda evaluates load and recommends the simplest safe solution.

Given time, most solar panels pay for themselves—and provide a return on investment—over their lifecycle. Many factors influence profitability and the time required to recover initial costs. Data suggests that a U.S. household typically takes 8-10 years to recoup the cost of a solar system installation.

Your solar system’s capabilities depend on many factors, including your property, local climate, shade coverage, and equipment quality. Your household energy usage also plays a significant role in whether solar alone can meet all your needs. Brda sources top-of-the-line equipment to ensure optimal energy production.

St. Louis has over 200 sunny days a year. This figure is on par with the national average, meaning properties here will generally experience typical solar system efficiency. Other factors, such as shade coverage and the property’s positioning, may affect your exact results. Schedule an evaluation with Brda’s friendly professionals to determine whether your property is a good fit for solar power.

Choosing a local St. Louis electrician ensures your project is completed in compliance with city and state codes. Solar installations are complex projects that require integration with the property’s electrical system and, in some cases, the local power grid (for net metering).
