Depending on your specific interests, we may recommend one of the following system types. It is also an option to start with solar panels only (grid-tied solar) and upgrade later.
GRID-TIED SOLAR
During the daytime, reduce grid power use by supplementing your energy consumption with solar power.
The basic grid-tie system (without a battery) is effective for power bill reduction as the sun shines.
SOLAR + BACKUP POWER
Use solar power at any time by storing energy in a battery and enabling backup solar power during a grid power outage.
Backup power systems provide both grid-tied and off-grid system features, enabling partial or total independence at any time.
OFF-GRID SOLAR
Be fully independent of a grid power connection. Use a solar plus battery system as the main power supply and a generator on standby for backup.
Off-grid systems may be suitable for new construction whenever grid-power access is expensive, unreliable, or out of reach.
SOLAR-EV
Combine solar power with electric vehicle charging to boost charging speeds and reduce power bills.
EV charging systems are now able to provide solar-only charging as well as scheduled charging from grid power.
SMART BREAKER PANEL
Replace your outdated breaker panel with a smart panel that allows you to track energy consumption through your smartphone, remotely manage circuits, and set power usage limits or schedules.
A smart way to gain control of energy usage using smart controls such as timers, remote control of individual circuits, power use monitoring, and more.
