There are a ton of reasons to convert your golf cart to solar power. Here's just a few:
- They save you money! Is there any better reason than that? Instead of plugging your cart into the wall, you simply need to leave it in the sun to charge the batteries. The savings on your electric bill are significant. Most cart kits pay for themselves in a couple years with these savings.
- They are easy to install. The kit is made to install easily onto every major golf cart manufacturer's roof. The wires are run down one of the rear support posts. A charge controller, which ensures that the batteries recieve the proper charge, installs in the battery compartment in a matter of minutes. Most systems can be done in a few hours by a person with some basic electrical knowledge and a standard set of tools. All kits come with instructions and drawings.
- Increased range. Using the sun to charge your batteries means you can go farther for longer since your batteries will be charging as you drive!
- Incentives! Sun-powered kits for golf carts are eligible for the 30% federal renewable energy tax credit, which means whatever you spend on your kit will be reduced by 30%. There are also state incentives for plug-in electric vehicles and solar installations that may apply, ask your accountant about these.
- That wonderful green feeling. There are few things as satisfying as knowing that you are saving money AND helping the planet reduce greenhouse emissions. Maybe its a cliche, but every watt of energy you save and produce with green energy means less carbon in the air tomorrow. Its hard to argue with that.
