Solar Installation

Solar built around your home, and your power bill.

Data centers are straining Maryland’s grid and pushing rates up. Solar lets you generate your own power and lock in your rate. Zero down, zero out of pocket, no pressure.

Never-before-seen solar funding for qualifying homeowners

Major energy companies are making funding available for solar because of the strain on the grid. Production is guaranteed, which aligns the homeowner and the lender like never before. Certain homeowners qualify, and only a limited number of solar companies have access.

Why Now

Four reasons homeowners are going solar this year.

Data centers are driving rates up

Large new data centers are pulling power from the regional grid, and those costs get passed to homeowners. PJM grid capacity prices jumped more than 10x in a single auction cycle.

Net metering changes in 2027

Maryland’s 1:1 net metering changes in 2027. Systems installed and active before the deadline are grandfathered under today’s rules.

Lock in your rate

Rising utility prices stop applying to the power you generate. Your rate stays fixed for 25 years.

Pair it with backup

Add a battery and your home keeps power through outages, which grid strain is making more likely.

60-Second Check

Is solar right for my home?

Four quick questions. An honest answer, even when it is “not yet.”

How Solar Works

From sun to socket.

Solar panels convert sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity. The inverter transforms it into alternating current (AC) to safely power your home.

Microinverters (per panel)

How it works
Small, independent inverters attached to each panel.
Pros
Maximizes output. Shade on one panel does not impact the others.
Cons
Higher upfront cost.

String Inverters (centralized)

How it works
One central inverter for all panels.
Pros
Most cost-effective and highly reliable.
Cons
Panels are linked. If one is shaded, the whole string’s output drops.

We install both. Which one goes on your home depends on your roof, your shading and your budget, and we explain exactly why we recommend it.

Questions

Solar, answered plainly.

Is there new funding available for solar right now?

Yes, for certain homeowners. Because of the strain on the grid, major energy companies are making funding available for solar. That creates a never-before-seen alignment between the homeowner and the lender, because production is guaranteed. Certain homeowners qualify, and only a limited number of solar companies have access to this funding. Ask us at your free consultation whether you qualify.

Do I need to pay anything upfront?

No. Our most popular option is a zero-down lease with nothing out of pocket. We will also lay out loan and cash options side by side so you can compare and choose.

How long does installation take?

Most residential installs are completed in a single day, weather permitting. Permitting and utility interconnection happen before and after install day, and we manage that paperwork for you.

What if my roof is old?

If the roof needs work before it carries panels, we can handle that too, so you replace it once and in the right order.

Will solar work on a shaded roof?

It can. Microinverters let each panel produce independently, which helps when shade hits part of the roof. We will look at your actual roof before recommending anything.

Do you install both microinverters and string inverters?

Yes. Which one fits depends on your roof, shading and budget, and we explain why we are recommending it.
