Electricity bills have been climbing for many New Yorkers, and Dorcelis, a homeowner in East Flatbush, was feeling the sting of Con Edison’s utility rate increases. With his bills reaching as high as $800, he was eager to find a way to save. When an Mpower Solar sales agent knocked on Dorcelis’ door, he jumped at the chance to learn more about residential solar power. 

The Mpower Solar team visited Dorcelis to present a customized proposal based on his electricity needs. By making the switch to home solar, Dorcelis could finally say goodbye to those extremely high energy bills, and he was looking forward to his potential savings of $81,039. “I decided to go with solar because I thought it would be the best thing to save money,” he explained.

A month after the contract was signed, the installation crew was at Dorcelis’ home. In just a few hours, the 8.6 kW system was installed on the flat roof. With an average kW usage of 7.5, this means that Dorcelis can benefit from higher offset and improved efficiency. 

There are many solar installation companies currently operating in his area, but when reflecting on his choice, Dorcelis expressed that the approachability and friendliness of the Mpower Solar team was a key factor in his decision. “The agent came to see me, and he spoke nicely, and he took the time to explain how things would work. That’s why I chose Mpower Solar.”
