I remember growing up (70′s & 80′s), seeing a few select homes in our neighborhood with those huge solar panels attached to the roof. Even as a kid, I thought they were ugly, and wondered why anyone would want something like that on their home.

Obviously, as I grew older, I began to understand a little more, but there are still very few aesthetically-pleasing options out there.

How about this as an alternative? Solar Shingles are a reality. Could this be the next wave of home improvement?

Making the right ones might yield you some big savings on Uncle Sam’s dime.

Truth is, going green is a matter of the heart for some, but for most, it’s a matter of the wallet.

“My wife read about it and said, ‘We’ve been talking about doing [solar upgrades] long enough. Let’s just do it.’ People worry about the money you have to put out up front, but you’re getting big-ticket items like solar panels for a third less and you will save money on your energy bill forever,” Silva says–not to mention the boost it gives to the value of the house.

There’s never been a better time to invest in energy-conserving upgrades to your house–that’s the word from the White House. And Congress is backing up the message with billions of dollars being made available to homeowners who want to bring down their energy bills.

On the bright side though, there are other tax credits out there for the rest of us.  Did you know there are tax credits being created for home owners who are making the move toward more environmentally-friendly homes?  You can read more about these incentives here.  It appears that going green may save you some green, so don’t give up on your stimulus just yet.
