As an Orange County resident, switching to solar panels for your household energy consumption is a wise decision. The money you save on utility bills translates to higher returns on your initial investment of purchasing a solar photovoltaic (PV) panel system. You will trade an expensive utility bill for a much lower monthly solar payment that contributes toward the ownership of your home PV system and qualifies you for the federal solar tax credit.
Selecting a solar PV system that meets your energy needs and your budget is critical to accomplishing your renewable energy goals. That’s why you need a trusted solar partner who can help design the most efficient system for your individual household.
Baker Home Energy has been serving the Southern California community with energy solutions for 86 years. Our team of local, highly experienced solar consultants provides outstanding customer service, making us the best Orange County solar company.
We are committed to addressing all your concerns about going solar and determining the right solar PV system for your home.
How Does Solar Work in Orange County?
Orange County enjoys an average of 278 sunny days a year, making it an ideal location for reaping the benefits of solar energy. As a local resident, you can self-generate heat and electricity for your home and reduce your dependence on electricity from the grid by installing a PV system. However, you will continue your relationship with your utility company.
Under Net Billing Tariff (NBT), you can send the additional energy you generate with your home solar system back to the utility company and receive minimal credits in return. These energy credits can be used to pay for grid electricity consumed at night when solar panels are not generating electricity. You’ll still need to pay some minimal charges that solar cannot offset, like power line maintenance and low-income household assistance. A zero balance for your electric bill is still possible with a correctly designed solar panel + home battery installation.
With Baker Home Energy, a solar installation in Orange County involves four easy steps: Consultation & Design; Engineering; Installation; and Operation. As the best Orange County solar company—with over 24,000 satisfied customers to date—you can rest assured that your home solar installation is in expert hands.
