Oak Electric… Delivering Energy in Every Way!

"This project was a big undertaking and expensive but with the help of Oak Electric it went very smoothly. Diana in the office was very helpful with the paperwork, and she had outstanding and professional communication skills. Jeremy, our salesperson, was extremely helpful in designing the perfect system for our house and getting us the right product and a great price.

The installation crew led by Jamison and Alex were experienced, professional, knowledgeable, and they took great care of our house. I would also like to thank Dave, Nick (Country Fresh), Josh, Gavin, and the rest of the guys. Installation was quick, it only took two days. Oak Electric had the best price, and they got me better product at a better price than the competition.

I would highly recommend Oak Electric as they did a great job on my project. Two days after the installation of the solar panels a major hail storm came through our area. A lot of cars were damaged by golf ball size hail, but my solar panels made it through the storm without any damage. Unlike my car."

Frequently Asked Questions

A photovoltaic (PV) solar energy system is composed of solar panels, racking for mounting the panels on the roof, electrical wiring, and an inverter. From sunrise to sunset, the solar panels generate direct current electricity (DC) which is sent to the inverter. The inverter converts the DC into alternating current (AC), the type of electricity required for household use. The AC power is delivered directly to your home’s main electrical service panel for use by you and your family.

It’s important to minimize shading because solar panels operate at optimal output when their entire surface is fully exposed to direct sunlight. The system will still produce energy if it is shaded but its output will lessen.

Our solar systems are designed to have a useful life of 40 years or more.

Your current monthly energy use and the size of your system will determine your actual savings amount. And with little or no startup costs, systems can start paying for themselves immediately. Savings will vary based on several factors, including system size, performance, your household’s average energy usage as well as any applicable solar credits, tax incentives, and current solar energy buyback (net metering) rates offered by your utility company.

Having a solar system typically adds value to your home.* Depending on where you live, there is often no increase in your property taxes.
