Admirals Bank to Unveil Energy Investment Calculator at Solar Power International
Providence, RI (PRWEB) October 22, 2013 -- Admirals Bank currently works with hundreds of solar installers across the United States, providing financing to their qualified customers who seek to own their power and solar system.* Homeowners can apply for a loan of up to $40,000 for residential solar systems through Admirals Bank. Admirals has recently reduced the costs associated with its loan products, allowing homeowners to have lower monthly payments and own their solar systems.** The Bank actively participates in educational efforts throughout the country to help homeowners clearly comprehend the advantages of solar ownership. Additionally, Admirals Bank aims to strengthen installers’ understanding of the solar financing options available and how leveraging these options can dramatically increase sales.
With the launch of its new online Energy Investment Calculator, Admirals Bank has now considerably simplified the in-home sale of residential solar systems. This online tool easily processes basic customer, system and loan information. Within seconds the tool estimates the 25-year net benefit to the homeowner and presents a detailed comparison of the Admirals Bank loan to a lease or other loan product. Solar installers are able to enter system information based on the designed system size, insolation factor, price per kilowatt and incentive information from their local area. These features enable installers to customize each data analysis to each customer’s own unique circumstances, thus further validating the benefit of the solar system to the customer. The Energy Investment Calculator will be on demonstration at the Bank's Booth #1053 during the Solar Power International trade show being held at McCormick Place in Chicago, Illinois from October 21-24.
“Solar installers across the country are searching for innovative, in-home solutions for homeowners that generate the highest electricity costs savings, minimize the cost of capital and maximize monetization of solar tax incentives and rebates. Our Energy Investment Calculator can be easily accessed in the home at the time of sale and shows how the Admirals Bank loan can provide homeowners with the maximum return compared to other popular financing products and energy ownership models,” said Ed Steins, Vice President and Director of National Sales, Renewable Energy Lending at Admirals Bank.
Admirals Bank will be showcasing this Energy Investment Calculator at this year’s Solar Power International trade show at Booth #1053. Solar financing experts from the Bank will be giving live demonstrations of the calculator and other contractor tools, in addition to explaining the Admirals Bank solar loan programs offered and the advantages of direct ownership.
Mr. Steins continued, “We pride ourselves in creating innovative solutions for the solar installers we work with, as well as the homeowners that are referred to us. Our Bank has many resources to offer the renewable energy industry, and we value opportunities like Solar Power International to showcase our sales tools and financing options.”
