Defend from rising costs and a strained grid

Take Control of Your Energy Future

Oregon’s energy landscape is changing. Rising electricity rates, projected to continue as grid demand increases, are putting pressure on households across the region. In 2023 alone, hydropower generation the backbone of Oregon’s electricity fell to its lowest levels in 22 years, pushing costs higher as utilities turned to more expensive, less reliable energy sources. For Oregonians, this means monthly energy bills that are harder to predict and likely to rise.

At the same time, grid reliability has become a growing concern. Severe weather events, from wildfires to winter storms, are increasing in frequency and intensity due to climate change. In January 2024, over 400,000 Oregon households were left without power after a major winter storm. Many homeowners are now seeking a solution that offers both cost savings and energy independence and solar delivers on both.

Lowering risk and providing reassurance

What can Solar do for you?

Lower your energy costs.

Going Solar can immediately reduce your monthly electricity costs, often leading to lower net costs even after considering the cost of your system.

Generate high returns on your investment.

A residential solar system can provide instant savings on your utility bills, and with storage and Net Metering options, you can earn credits to reduce your payoff period.

Achieve energy independence.

A solar system can reduce or remove reliance on the energy grid, providing you with peace of mind and savings even during peak demand periods and outages.

Reduce your carbon footprint.

A newly installed residential Solar System can reduce emissions equivalent to planting 100+ trees annually, and that’s before considering the long term and auxiliary impacts.

Don’t miss out

The available benefits won’t last forever

Harnessing the latest advancements in solar technology, a residential solar system can meet 100% of your home s energy needs and even generate surplus energy to send back to the grid. This means lower energy bills, reduced environmental impact, and the opportunity to earn credits for your excess energy with programs like Net Metering. Solar power is more than an investment in your home; it’s a commitment to a sustainable future and a financially savvy choice that benefits you and your community.

How incentives can help you save

Going solar is more affordable than ever, thanks to a range of local and federal incentives specifically designed to encourage clean energy adoption. These programs help offset initial costs, making solar energy accessible to more people and easier for Oregon homeowners, both financially and environmentally. However, many of these benefits are time sensitive. Acting now ensures you can lock in maximum savings.

Federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC)

The Federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC), also known as the Residential Clean Energy Credit, allows homeowners in Oregon to receive a tax credit of up to 30% of the cost of installing a solar energy system. The ITC is an essential incentive, providing Oregon residents with a tax credit that directly reduces the federal income tax they owe. For example, if your solar installation costs $20,000, the 30% ITC would provide a tax credit of $6,000, lowering your effective system cost significantly.

ODOE’s Solar + Storage Rebate

Oregon’s Solar + Storage Rebate Program, administered by the Oregon Department of Energy (ODOE), provides rebates to help homeowners reduce the cost of installing solar electric systems and solar paired with battery storage. These financial incentives go towards installing solar systems, with additional benefits for adding battery storage. This program allows you to reduce the initial costs, making clean energy more accessible.

Net Metering in Oregon

Net metering is a powerful incentive for Oregon homeowners with solar energy systems. When your solar panels produce more energy than your household consumes, the extra power goes back to the utility grid. In exchange, your utility company provides you with credits that can offset future bills. This means you can save even more, particularly during months when your system may produce less energy, like winter.

Frequently Asked Questions about Solar

Determining which solar incentives you qualify for depends on factors like your location, income level, and energy provider. Oregon offers several incentives, and the best way to find out what you qualify for is by requesting a personalized solar quote. Our experts will assess your eligibility for state, federal, and utility-specific incentives to maximize your savings.

Generally, specific building codes and permits are required for solar installations. However, these regulations are in place to ensure your solar panels meet safety standards and local guidelines. Trust our experts to help guide you through the process and avoid any hassle with your solar system.

What about HOAs? Can they deny my solar installation?

No, Oregon homeowners associations (HOAs) cannot prohibit solar panel installation. State laws protect homeowners’ rights to adopt renewable energy solutions like solar power. While HOAs can establish reasonable guidelines for the placement and appearance of panels, they cannot impose restrictions that significantly hinder installation. This ensures all Oregon residents can transition to clean energy without unnecessary obstacles.

Absolutely. Battery backups, also known as solar energy storage systems, can be integrated at the time of installation or added at a later date. Batteries enable you to store excess energy produced during peak sunlight hours, which you can use when the sun isn’t shining or during grid outages. This extra layer of independence and resilience is growing in popularity, allowing homeowners to maximize their energy savings and maintain power in emergencies. However, available incentives and how they are applied may change based on your decision to install a battery backup.
