Solar Panels

The Sun -The original source of all earthly energy - and it's still free!

We represent major solar panel manufacturers and have strived from the start to offer solar panels for as low a price as we can.

It is difficult to beat Internet prices when you have a "brick & mortar" store. Many people do come by to get "edjamacated" and then buy from a discounter on-line. We hope that you value our service and will appreciate the time we spend with you.

We hope to build sales into huge volumes and so offer comparable pricing. That was the founding idea of solar store; Order large volumes, drop the price and "get it out there".

We try to buy from companies that are not affiliated with oil companies.

We offer Evergreen, Sharp, Uni-Solar and Kyocera Solar modules.
