Solar Energy in Santa Clara, CA

CA Solar Policies & Incentives: Learn more about California's long history of supporting renewable energy on our California Solar Energy Incentives & Rebates page.

CA utility Electricity Rates: If you're paying more than $100 per month for electricity, going solar is a good way to take control of your electric bill.

Many California utility companies charge for electricity by tiers. This means that the more power you use, the higher your electricity rate will be. For example, you can pay around $0.12 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) for your first chunk of power. For an additional amount of power, you'll pay $0.13 per kWh, and $0.26 for the next chunk of power.

With Sunrun, you can offset part of the traditional electricity you use from your utility company with clean and affordable solar electricity from Sunrun. This way, you avoid the utility company's highest rates for electricity.
