Its more than just a slogan. An investment in renewable energy offers not only an immediate return on investment from federal tax credits, electric utility incentives, and accelerated depreciation, but can provide lower and more predictable operating expenses. Solar module efficiency has increased from about 13 percent to over 20 percent during the last 20 years.
Paired with a 10x price reduction, the economics for installation of solar has never been better. Apadana Solar is a Twin Cities based full-service engineering, procurement and construction firm that will optimize your solar PV system given your unique power consumption profile.

Solar energy has always been the most accessible means for business, home, and property owners to directly participate in sustainable green energy. The technology has advanced to the point that most solar systems will operate with minimal intervention for decades, reliably and noiselessly generating electricity for their owners.

Most recognize the importance of addressing climate change by reducing the levels of carbon dioxide in the air. One of the largest contributors to these greenhouse gases is electric power generation. Installation of a solar PV system can produce renewable energy, reducing dependency on carbon-based power.
If you are considering the addition of Solar power to your home, let Apadana guide you through the process of evaluating your decision. The amount of power generated by a solar energy system is highly dependent on the size of the system and more importantly the amount of the sun's energy that can be captured by the panels.
Design Challenges Faced and Means of Overcoming those Challenges: Need to work in a space constrained site with adequate spacing and visual barriers for neighboring views. Also need to avoid some shading from surrounding trees as well as an awkward site access through landowners existing access road.

I hired them to install my Tesla charger with a bypass switch and a second socket meter in my garage. All they installed was the charger and billed me the full price of everything I was quoted.
I actually gave you the spec. design directly from Elk River Utilities for the design they requested to give me off peak hours rate. Which requires a bypass switch and a second socket meter installed for the cheaper rate. All that was done was hard wiring it directly into my circuit breaker. NO STITCH OR BYPASS SOCKET.
I paid with my credit card before they ever came out and started the work. Then suddenly

We narrowed down our solar options to a few providers and actually did not go with Apadana Solar. However, we were very close to using them. Apadana was very professional and responsive to questions throughout the search process. I would recommend to anyone looking for solar installation to include Apadana in your consideration set for a good, local company in the Twin Cities.

From start to finish it was a real pleasure working with Apadana Solar. They were very helpful with informing us of the incentive end rebate programs available from our local energy provider as well as federal tax credit programs which helped tremendously with our decision. They also helped us understand the technology and maximize the solar production capabilities of our home for our needs. The installation crew was very good at their work and setting and meeting expectations. Everyone was very friendly and excellent at communication throughout the process. I wholeheartedly recommend Apadana Solar

The team from Apadana was great in all respects. They created a competitive system that met our specifications, with a financing plan suited to our budget. The panels that were selected and installed have a high performance rating which will keep our system producing with excellent efficiency for many years. The installers were courteous and friendly, while working in a timely way. We look forward to the benefits of going solar in less than 2 months from the date we signed our initial agreement! Going solar CAN really pay - between the 26% federal tax credit, and benefits 2 ways from Xcel. It's

We selected Apadana from half a dozen other proposals to install our residential solar photovoltaic system. They are big enough to have experienced technicians, but small enough to be responsive. They worked with us to get us a system with the parameters we need at a price we could afford and the financing terms we wanted. The install went quickly, and we are going to be connected to the grid less than two months after we signed the initial paperwork. We are looking forward to saving money AND helping to cut carbon dioxide emissions!

I hired Apadana solar Technologies 2 years ago to place a solar system at my Dental office building. They are currently in the process of converting my residence to a solar system as well. I have nothing but praise for the professionalism and quality of service that I have received from this company and would highly recommend them if you are considering a solar conversion.

Apadana Solar Technologies installed my Tesla EV charger and worked with Xcel Energy to get me an off-peak meter installed and special EV rate for my EV. They were professional, on time, and communicated in advance and I recommend them for EV meter installations.

I'm no tree hugger. But money speaks loudly. And I've happily discovered that putting a solar system on my house is a good financial investment. What initially looks expensive quickly gets reduced by a 26% federal tax CREDIT (not a deduction, but rather works like withholding to lower your tax bill); then there are the Xcel Energy incentives that pays you hundreds of dollars each year for just owning the system; then there is a money that Xcel Energy pays you for the extra electricity you make. Apadana helped me understand how all this works and I'm glad they did. Plus, they did an outstanding
