The sunniest big city in America — and one where rising utility rates, whether you're on LADWP or SCE, make solar one of the smartest financial moves a homeowner can make.
Compare LA Solar Quotes →Los Angeles gets about 284 sunny days per year and sits in one of the strongest solar production zones in the country. But the real driver isn't just the sunshine — it's what LADWP has been doing to electricity rates.
The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power has raised rates repeatedly in recent years, and more increases are planned. For homeowners on the standard tiered rate, the cost of electricity keeps climbing — and there's no indication that trend will reverse. Solar lets you lock in a fixed monthly payment now and stop absorbing those increases year after year.
The LA solar market is also large and competitive, which is good news and a warning at the same time. There are excellent installers in this market — and there are also companies that use LA's size and homeowner enthusiasm to charge well above market rates. The single most effective thing you can do is compare quotes from multiple licensed installers before you commit. That's exactly what we help you do.
Los Angeles has two utility providers. Select yours for an accurate savings estimate. Not sure? Check your electricity bill — it will say either "Los Angeles Department of Water and Power" or "Southern California Edison."
LADWP has one of California's best net metering programs — your excess solar power earns credits at the full retail rate, not a discounted wholesale rate. No battery required to maximize your savings.
Solar is a big purchase — typically $20,000+ before incentives. The price you pay depends heavily on which installer you choose. Here's what makes our service worth using:
We match you with licensed LA-area installers who provide real pricing — not teaser rates designed to upsell you later.
Most homeowners qualify for $0 down financing. Your monthly loan payment is often less than what you're currently paying your utility.
We help you compare the same system specs across installers so price differences are meaningful, not just the result of different equipment.
We don't auction your information to a dozen contractors. You get quotes from a vetted, limited set of installers — not a spam flood.
