How much does the average U.S. customer save on their electric bills with solar?

On average, U.S. customers save about $1,500 a year by going solar – $37,500 over the course of 25 years. But for individual solar energy systems, these savings can vary from $10,000 – $90,000 depending on roof size, sunlight exposure, local energy rates and solar incentives.

Does this scale with inflation?

Solar panels are a fixed cost, that means you own your solar power and the cost doesn't go up! Inflation makes everything go up in price because the dollar slowly loses its value, like how gasoline was only $1.50 per gallon in the year 2000. That wasn’t very long ago! By the time you finish paying off your solar at your low fixed-rate price, your power bill would have more than doubled while your solar cost will stay relatively the same. That’s real savings. The earlier you go solar, the more you save and the better your head start on inflation - don't wait!

Hybrid

A hybrid battery system uses the same inverter to control your solar panels and your battery, saving space and money. The battery charges using the direct current straight from the solar panels, maximizing efficiency. We offer a flexible hybrid battery system with 5kWh to 30kWh of energy storage possible.

Standalone

A battery system that works independently of your solar inverter. It is ideal as a retrofit solution to your solar panel system, or if you want a specific brand of solar inverter. Our all-in-one battery is a powerful solution that maximizes energy storage in one neat cabinet.

Loan/Lease

The most common way to buy into solar is to take out a solar loan to help cover the upfront cost of putting the system on your roof and start saving you money. Even better, as you pay down the loan you’re increasing the value of your home. It unlocks the ability for you to finally take back your power and pay yourself, rather than endlessly pay for utilities. 

The reasons for leasing solar panels are the same reasons you might lease a car. Leasing Requires Less Upfront Money. You may have lower costs at the start to get solar onto your roof with a lease. The cool thing about leasing solar vs. a car is that there’s no mileage on panels – you get the ability to produce unlimited energy with zero penalties.

Power Purchase Agreement

Allow us to put our solar on your roof you don’t own the system but you now get access to cheaper power than your utility company. A PPA is similar to a lease in that you get the solar onto your roof with no upfront costs, downpayments, or loans. The major difference is that you’re neither leasing nor owning your solar panels. 

With this model, you can get our best solar panels on your roof, but we take all the responsibility for ownership. You sign a contract in advance that guarantees a locked-in low rate for you to buy inexpensive solar from our system, which will be much lower than buying power from your utility provider, especially over time.
