Solar Panel Installation in San Diego

Under NEM 3.0, generic cookie-cutter solar loses money. Every Nuon Energy system is designed against your actual 12-month utility usage, your roof's shade profile, and your future plans — EVs, heat pumps, pool pumps, ADUs.

Custom rooftop PV design

The Nuon Standard for
solar panels.

We install tier-1 panels from REC, Silfab and Q CELLS with Enphase IQ8 microinverters, so each panel produces independently and shading on one module doesn't drag down your whole array. Every roof penetration is flashed and sealed to the manufacturer's spec.

You get a full production estimate, a shade report from your specific roof, and a plain-English breakdown of financing options — cash, HELOC, or 25-year solar loan — before you sign anything.

Adding storage to a solar installation helps homeowners gain real energy independence while reducing reliance on the grid. Designed to work seamlessly with your PV, storage automatically delivers power when electricity rates are highest or during unexpected outages.

Solar Panels FAQ

How much does solar cost in San Diego?

+
A typical residential system runs $18,000–$35,000 before incentives, depending on size and equipment. The 30% federal tax credit and financing options bring monthly cost below what SDG&E charges most homes today.

How long does the install take?

+
On-roof install is usually 1–3 days. From contract signing to Permission to Operate (PTO) typically runs 6–10 weeks including permits and utility approval.

Do I need battery storage under NEM 3.0?

+
Not required — but strongly recommended. NEM 3.0 export credits are ~75% lower than NEM 2.0, so storing and self-consuming your solar is dramatically more valuable than exporting it.
