For income-qualified homeowners, the San Diego Solar Equity Program (SDSEP) offers an incredible opportunity to make solar energy more affordable. This initiative provides direct monetary assistance to eligible single-family homeowners in San Diego County, helping reduce the upfront cost of a solar installation. When combined with federal tax incentives and local rebates, SDSEP can bring the cost of going solar close to zero for qualifying participants. Our team works closely with you to determine eligibility and assist in the application process. With SDSEP, renewable energy becomes an achievable reality for more households—bringing energy equity and long-term economic benefits to our community.
One of the most powerful incentives available to homeowners is the Federal Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC). This program allows you to deduct up to 30% of your total solar installation costs from your federal taxes. It applies to both solar panel systems and qualifying battery storage solutions. At San Diego Solar Pro, we help you take full advantage of this incentive by guiding you through the documentation and tax filing process. When combined with other local programs, the ITC significantly reduces the financial barrier to entry—making solar energy more accessible than ever before.
California’s Net Billing Tariff (NBT) gives you the ability to export excess solar power back to the grid and earn energy credits through San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E). These credits can be used to offset your electricity use during non-solar hours—such as cloudy days or nighttime—further reducing your monthly bills. We design systems that maximize your solar production and credit value. By optimizing for time-of-use (TOU) rates and energy consumption patterns, our systems help you keep more money in your pocket. You’re not just using solar; you’re becoming a smart energy producer.
One of the most common questions we hear is: “How long does it take for solar to pay for itself?” In most parts of California—including San Diego—homeowners typically break even on their solar investment within 5 to 8 years. This depends on factors like energy consumption, system size, battery integration, and participation in rebate programs. After reaching the payback period, all additional electricity generated by your system is essentially free—leading to thousands in savings over the 25+ year lifespan of the system. With electricity rates steadily increasing, your return on investment (ROI) improves each year.
We design and install high-efficiency solar panels built for San Diego rooftops. Our team ensures proper alignment, durability, and energy optimization to maximize long-term savings and performance.
