Montgomery County is home to tight-knit communities like Amsterdam, Canajoharie, and Fort Plain, where families take pride in preserving their homes and their way of life. But rising energy costs are putting pressure on budgets, especially during the colder months when electricity usage spikes. For many homeowners, solar energy has become a practical solution to take control of these costs.
At Empire Solar, we take care of every step in the solar installation process, from your free consultation and system design to handling permits, installation, and ongoing support. We also provide additional services, such as roofing, tree removal, and electrical upgrades, to ensure your home is ready to fully benefit from solar energy.
Most Montgomery County residents rely on National Grid for electricity, but rising rates and delivery fees are pushing many families to seek alternatives. Solar power provides a way to generate your own energy, cut utility costs, and secure predictable savings for years to come.
