We currently serve areas within the state of California.

We offer a number of payment options for those who qualify, including a $0 money down solar lease, a pre-paid lease, fixed payment lease, and a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). Note that financing options differ by location and credit history. Please request your free solar iQuote at www.sungevity.com/solar-quote to learn whether solar is right for you and explore your personalized financial options. After we've consulted with you about your current (and future) energy use, we use our remote proprietary design tool to engineer a custom solar solution for your home. We use handpicked, local solar experts to install your solar system. Read More

After you sign up, we'll start working on getting your solar system up and running by scheduling a home visit with one of our excellent local installers. We'll also handle the permits and other paperwork for you. After installation, we provide monitoring tools so you can track your system’s production. Read More

Depending on your utility, you may get a credit for this excess production. The additional electricity your system produces flows back into the grid and runs your meter backwards, earning you credits. Then, when it's dark, you draw electricity back from the grid. Read More

We offer a no-pressure consultation to help figure out if going solar works for you. First, we'll gather all 12 months of your past energy use. That's what makes our quotes as accurate as possible, by both the amount by which we can offset your use and the cost/savings potential of going solar. By learning how your usage fluctuates from month to month, and because both solar production and utility rates fluctuate as well, knowing all 12 months makes the quotes as accurate and personalized as possible. We'll then use our remote proprietary design tool to engineer a custom solar solution for your home. Of course, we also complete all of the interconnection paperwork on your behalf. And finally, we use local solar experts to install your solar system hassle-free. Read More

Solar systems continue to produce even when it's cloudy. For example, on a cloudy day, your panels might produce 30% of what they normally would. If you live in a cloudy area, or an area with seasonal snow, your expected weather conditions will be factored into our estimates for your energy production. Read More
