Sherrill visited GAF's headquarters in Parsippany, NJ to learn more about GAF and GAF Energy's solar innovations while promoting her RAISE the Roof bill.
The RAISE the Roof Act allows the entirety of an integrated solar roof to be covered by the investment tax credit and eliminates confusion and red tape that currently exist.
With a hotter-than-ever summer predicted in many parts of the U.S. and Canada, understanding how a roof performs to keep homeowners cool while maximizing energy savings is essential.
The system, installed on a private home in Portola Valley, Calif., will produce 50,455 kilowatt hours of clean energy annually and save the homeowner an estimated $271,484 in electricity costs.
The buildout of the property and its ongoing operations will result in hundreds of U.S.-based, clean energy manufacturing jobs and a solar roof product that is made in America.
GAF Energy services allow roofing companies to enter the fast-growing residential solar market with the backing of one of the industry’s leading solar roofing companies.
With roofing suppliers and manufacturers making it easier than ever to go green, now is the time for roofing contractors to step up and help save the planet.
