Mostly SMECO, some BGE
Calvert County is served primarily by SMECO, with some pockets of BGE. We confirm which utility serves your address before finalizing numbers, since the processes differ.
Permitting that depends on where you live
Calvert County’s permit path changes with your property. Solar within 1,000 feet of tidal waters may need a Critical Area review, homes in historic districts need a Historic Area Work permit, and ground mounts can trigger environmental health or grading steps. Rooftop systems that stay within the roof line and outside the Critical Area are the simple case, and the county has been moving to expedite those.
Bay-side design
Homes close to the Chesapeake in places like Lusby and Solomons face coastal wind and moisture exposure. We design around it with mounting hardware and flashing built for it.
Outage resilience
Long, rural power lines mean storms can mean long outages. Battery backup is especially practical in Calvert County.
