Choose Your Solar Strategy


The utility company plays a strategic role in your solar outcome. Understanding this relationship is vital in determining the best strategy for your home. There are three main strategies:

Power Camel Icon An oversized system can eliminate your entire utility bill & reduce your monthly service charge by providing your daytime usage and selling back the unused electricity to cover your fees and nighttime usage.

Power Camel Icon A smaller system producing power during the most expensive time of day will significantly reduce your utility bill. You then purchase cheaper nighttime power from your utility.

Power Camel Icon An oversized system can also be used to produce excess power and store that power in large home batteries instead of selling it to your utility company.

There are many details that are good to be aware of, but as a general rule the best strategy for you depends mostly on the buyback (export) rate of your utility. It makes sense to eliminate your entire utility bill if the utility will pay you more for your solar power than it costs you.

Power Camel Icon A properly sized solar system can greatly reduce, if not eliminate altogether, the need for energy supplied by SRP, APS, or TEP.

Power Camel Icon Some solar systems allow customers to save money both immediately on their monthly bill as well as over time with a solar tax credit.
