Solar For Homeowners
Shocked by Your Electric Bill?
Solar Will Save You!
Go Solar With No Money Down
Let’s face it, we all need electricity and use it on a daily basis. In fact, statistically we use more and more electricity today than ever before. With our increasing demands for energy, PG&E has only exasperated matters with steady annual rate hikes, averaging about 5% per year since 2001. That’s a staggering 69% increase over the last 14 years! (source: PG&E’s own website)
The good news is that since 2007, the cost of installing a solar system has fallen by about 50%, while demand for U.S. solar power increased 41% in the last year alone. (source: Solar Energy Industries Association). Solar is now affordable for everyone and can even be purchased with no money down, similar to auto loans that we’ve all seen advertised.
We have access to a variety of amazing financing programs and take great pride in having assisted our customers with finding the one that is right for them. We’ve partnered with local banks, are an approved contractor for competitive financing plans, and offer free site evaluations for homeowners to determine if solar is a good fit.

We’re happy to answer any questions you may have and guide you through all the options that are available.

PG&E’s Tiered Billing System
The Utility Company rates are designed to limit usage / reward lower usage and discourage / charge more for higher usage that is arbitrarily considered above their “baseline.” Unfortunately, for most homeowners, limiting or cutting back on energy consumption, (especially in today technological era), is simply not an option. The following chart shows how PG&E is charging you for your electricity, (as of Jan. 2015):


By going solar, you can not only lower, but lock-in your electric rate to under $0.10 per kWh,
w/ no more tiers, for next 25 years!
(assuming a cash purchase price of $4.50 per Watt for solar installation & remaining electric charges).
