Quantum Quote: \u201cWhen my friend came in and proposed a solar solution, number one, I trusted him fully. But sometimes when someone tells you something that seems too good to be true, it seems like it is. But when I checked with my bank and my CPA, they said he told me the 100% truth. Over two years has passed since we turned the solar on - and it's all true. It's unbelievable.\u201d - Anthony Mongeluzo

Supernova 1: \u201cI went to solar one, because we're environmentally friendly. If you look at the amount of trees that we\u2019re saving, carbon offsets, things of that nature - it's a tremendous impact for the environment. But financially, there's a tremendous impact as well.\u201d

Supernova 2: \u201cThe system we subscribe to takes those Solar Renewable Energy Credits, or SRECs, and sells them. On average, we're getting $10,000 a month. In August, it might be 14 to 15 thousand dollars, and December it might be 6 - but averaging out, we\u2019re looking at 10 grand a month in money that comes wired right to my bank account.\u201d

Supernova 3: \u201cWhen people drive past our building, we're one of the few buildings in Morristown, New Jersey that has solar. So it also creates a little purple cow. Everyone stops when they see that purple cow, because you don't see that too often. It gives a little extra attention to our business.Without saying anything, we're showing that we're environmentally friendly, and that we're innovative. There are some intangibles that you don't think about when you're doing the project.\u201d\xa0

Supernova 4:\xa0 \u201cMake sure\xa0 you have your professionals lined up. You need to have the right banker. A lot of banks will not mortgage solar. If you're going to buy a building and you're planning on doing solar down the line, make sure the bank holding the mortgage will help you.

Supernova 5:\xa0 \u201cKnow your town. Your municipality can create a lot of bureaucratic hurdles and delay your project by months\u201d.\xa0
