With electricity rates rising and powerful incentives available, California homeowners, businesses, and agricultural operators are turning to solar energy not just for sustainability — but for long-term savings and energy independence.
PG&E customers saw major increases in 2024, including a 16.5% jump in average residential bills (source). Modest increases continued into 2025, resulting in a ~20% total rise since late 2023. CPUC Source
SCE’s residential bills remained relatively stable, with small increases of 1–2% per year between 2023–2025. Average kWh rates hovered around 31–32¢/kWh. (source)
SDG&E maintained some of the highest rates in the nation — averaging 38–40¢/kWh — with minor annual changes. However, some customers saw a net bill decrease thanks to climate credits. (source)
California’s average electricity rate grew from 14¢ in 2006 to over 34¢/kWh by 2024 — a 142% increase. (Enphase)
Available through 2032, the ITC covers 30% of eligible residential and commercial solar system costs. (IRS)
Properties in designated zones (like Kern County) qualify for another 10%. (Energy Communities)
Earn up to $1,000/kWh for energy storage systems like Tesla Powerwall when installed with solar. (SGIP Info)
Commercial and ag projects can earn RECs for every MWh of solar energy produced, often worth $15 or more per REC. (Energy Toolbase)

Over 25 years, typical solar customers save $100,000+ in electricity costs — and even more when paired with battery storage or electric vehicle charging.
If rooftop solar isn’t possible, California’s Community Solar programs let you subscribe to shared solar farms and earn monthly bill credits — no panels required.
We help clients access local rebates, expedited permitting programs, and special rates through city utilities and Community Choice Aggregators (CCAs). For example:
Battery incentives for greater energy independence.
$500 rebates available for eligible solar projects.
Participate in Water District solar pilot programs.
With utility rates rising and federal + local incentives stronger than ever, solar delivers:
