§ 32216 Energy Savings Investment Ratio

• •This law is about figuring out if saving energy is worth the money you spend to do it.
• •You add up all the money you save on energy and other good stuff (like tax breaks).
• •Then you add up all the costs (like fixing things, taxes, and loans).
• •Finally, you divide the good stuff by the costs to see if it’s a good deal.

You want to buy solar panels for your house.

You add up how much you save on electricity bills and any tax breaks. Then you add up the cost of the panels, installation, and maintenance. If the savings are way bigger than the costs, it’s a good idea.
