Solar Power is an Alternative Electrical System You Want

You Can Cut the Cord and Free Yourself from the Electrical Grid!

If you are dependent on PG&E, you are going to continue paying out more and more for electricity and you will still be left standing in the dark from time to time. But you have an option: go solar. Installing solar panels can make you energy independent. You generate power when the sun shines, and whatever is not used by you is passed on to an "energy bank account" with PG&E. During the winter when weather cuts your solar production, you draw back from the PG&E grid, using banked power at no cost: it was yours to begin with and now it’s being returned! And while PG&E winter rates is higher for non-solar customers, your power is free. Call us at 530.642.2476, or use this form to send your solar questions.

Sure, Solar! ...But That's Pretty Expensive, Right?

It can look like that, but you have to compare the cost of installing solar to what you're going to spend on PG&E anyway. Let's run a test. Use this little calculator to enter your average payment for PG&E. If you take the time to add up your last year's bills and average them, you will get a closer number, but at least enter an amount that approximates your average. Hit the calculate button and see what you will send (ballpark figure) to PG&E over the next ten years with nothing to show for it ( Note that this calculation includes an average annual rate increase of 6.5 percent). Now imagine that you spent that amount to buy your solar equipment, and remember that that solar installation is providing you power from the start, and when it is paid for, you run your home for free.
