Why Go Solar at Home?
Installing solar panels is one of the smartest decisions California homeowners can make. Here's why thousands of families are making the switch.
Reduce or Eliminate Electric Bills
Most homeowners see 50-100% reduction in their electricity costs from day one.
Protection from Rising Rates
PG&E rates have increased 7-10% annually. Lock in your energy costs with solar.
Avoid Power Outages
With battery storage, keep your home running during PSPS events and outages.
Increase Home Value
Solar homes sell for 4-6% more on average and typically sell faster.
Reduce Carbon Footprint
A typical solar system offsets 3-4 tons of carbon annually—like planting 100+ trees.

How Solar Panels Work
1. Sunlight Hits Your Panels
Solar panels on your roof capture sunlight and convert it into direct current (DC) electricity through photovoltaic cells.
2. Power Gets Converted
A solar inverter converts the DC electricity into alternating current (AC) electricity, which is what your home uses.
3. Your Home Uses the Power
The AC electricity flows to your electrical panel, powering your appliances, lights, and everything else in your home.
4. Extra Power = Credits
Any excess energy goes back to the grid, earning you credits through net energy metering—or stores in batteries for later use.
Find the Right System for Your Home
Solar panels aren't one-size-fits-all. We'll help you choose a system that matches your energy needs, lifestyle, and budget.
Grid-Tied Solar
A grid-tied system generates power while the sun shines. This system saves you money by funneling excess energy into the power grid for net energy metering credits or usage at a later time. Best for: Homeowners focused on reducing electricity bills.
Solar + Battery Storage
Get all the benefits of a grid-tied system plus reliable backup power during outages. Keep your lights on and essential systems running when the grid goes down. Best for: Homeowners wanting backup power protection.
Battery-Ready System
Not ready for batteries yet? We can install a battery-ready system that can be easily upgraded with battery storage in the future when you're ready. Best for: Budget-conscious homeowners planning ahead.
Off-Grid Solar
An off-grid system is not connected to the electric grid. Be completely energy independent by generating and storing 100% of the power you need. Best for: Remote properties or complete energy independence.
