Switching to solar can be highly cost-effective. Depending on your electricity bill, solar energy can sometimes eliminate your monthly bill entirely and even provide you with credits that turn into cash at the end of the year. Some homeowners enjoy up to 100% savings on their energy bills from day one! There are numerous zero-out-of-pocket financing options, such as solar loans and leases, allowing homeowners with good credit to switch to solar and start saving immediately. We’ll help you find the best option for your financial situation.

Switching to solar not only saves you money on your electricity bills but also protects you from future rate hikes, thanks to pre-determined solar rates. The amount you save depends on local utility rates and solar policies, but you can expect to save significantly more than if you stick with traditional energy providers.

Yes, there are several rebates and incentives available, depending on your location. The most well-known is the US federal government’s Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which allows solar homeowners to deduct 30% of the cost of their solar system from their taxes12. Additionally, there are state-level tax credits, incentives, and rebates offered by certain districts and utilities.

When it comes to financing your solar system, Tehachapi Solar offers three main options directly through our company:

Pay in Cash or Credit Card: Purchase the system outright.
Solar Loan: Secure a loan specifically for solar installation.
Power Purchase Agreement (PPA): Enter into an agreement where you pay for the power generated by the system at a fixed rate, often lower than your current electricity bill.
Typically, the latter two options offer rates that are lower than your current electricity bill, making solar energy a more affordable choice. No matter your current energy costs, switching to solar will likely save you money.

Certain energy providers offer rebates, and we will apply for these on your behalf if available, maximizing your savings
