UR Solar Power provides full-service management of utility residential solar programs and national retailer solar system sales.

One of the most valuable features of solar energy is that it can be produced on a distributed basis, right at the demand forgoing the need for costly transmission, distribution, line losses and other retail ancillary services. At the retail (or distributed) level, solar energy can provide a cost-effective solution providing peak power and/or valuable peak shaving for demand-side management. Distributed solar power can also play a significant role in energy security supplementing energy needs in blackouts and preventing them in the future. Distributed solar generation can play a major role in smart-grid systems by combining storage devices such as electric vehicles (EV’s), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV’s) and neighborhood electric vehicles (NEV’s).

Solar energy is the cleanest, most abundant, renewable energy source available. The U.S. possess the best solar resources in the world, coupled with the new administration’s promise to boost investment in renewables, the U.S. is poised to experience tremendous  growth even in an economic downturn. The U.S. Department of Energy’s Solar Energy Technology Program for Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy predicts that the solar energy industry ultimately could employ 4 million people. But adds that tremendous challenges are involved as the public and private sectors work to incorporate solar energy into a national electrical grid that is in need of its own upgrade.
