Economic Incentives


  • State Rebates

    Currently, the state of California is offering a $2.20/Watt rebate on residential solar systems. Don’t wait to have solar installed, this rebate rate will be dropping to $1.90/Watt soon!

  • Federal Tax Credit

    The current Federal Solar Investment Tax Credit authorizes system owners to receive a tax credit for 30% of the after rebate cost of the system, up to $2,000 dollars.

  • Increase Value of the Property

    Installing solar increases the value of your property by, at least as much as, 20 times the average annual utility savings it generates. In addition, the cost of the system is exempt from property taxes.

  • Reduce or Eliminate Your Electric Bill

    Electrical rates in California have increased, on average, 6.4% each year for the last 30 years, and in the last 7 years, this average has climbed to 6.9%. Installing a solar energy system allows you to lock in your energy rate. As the utility energy prices soar, the savings from your system increases its valuable.

  • Fast Return on Investment

    Depending on the location of your home, and how much energy you consume, the payoff of your solar system can be as little as 5-10 years.
