Whether your bill comes from SCE or Riverside Public Utilities, electricity rates have been climbing — and both utilities have more increases scheduled. Riverside homeowners are locking in a fixed solar payment now, trading a rising utility bill for a stable monthly one. $0 down, no pressure, no half-truths. Just straight talk.

Instead of paying SCE or RPU for power every month, you pay a lower fixed amount for a solar system that generates that power on your roof. Same electricity, lower payment, no more utility rate surprises.
Riverside sits in the heart of the Inland Empire, one of the sunniest regions in California. With 280+ sunny days a year and summer temperatures regularly topping 100°F, your home produces maximum solar energy exactly when you need it most — and exactly when utility rates hit their highest tiers.
The question for most Riverside homeowners isn't whether solar makes sense — with both SCE and RPU rates continuing to climb, the math is hard to argue with. The real question is whether you're paying a fair price. That's exactly what this site is designed to answer.

Riverside sits in one of the sunniest, hottest regions in California — which means rising utility bills and outstanding solar production potential. The combination makes the math on solar particularly compelling for Riverside homeowners.
Riverside's Inland Empire climate delivers exceptional solar energy production. More sun hours mean a larger system offset and better savings — your panels work harder here than almost anywhere in the country.
Whether your bill comes from SCE or Riverside Public Utilities, rates have been rising steadily. SCE rates have roughly doubled over the past six years. RPU residential customers have seen 7% rate increases in each of the past three years, with more increases scheduled through 2028. Solar locks in your rate now — future utility increases stop affecting your bottom line.
Riverside summers regularly top 100°F, driving air conditioning costs through the roof. Solar is most valuable precisely when the sun is most intense — your system produces the most energy when you need it most.
With our financing options, there's no upfront cost. You simply trade your current SCE bill for a lower combined payment. Most Riverside homeowners see savings from the very first month.
Unlike SCE's NEM 3.0 (which pays discounted wholesale rates for exported power), Riverside Public Utilities offers full retail-rate net metering through their Self-Generation Program. Every kilowatt-hour your panels produce earns full credit at the same rate you pay — no battery required to maximize your solar value.
Solar is a major purchase — typically $20,000+ before incentives, although solar financing allows homeowners to consistently do this with $0 down. The price you pay depends heavily on which installer you choose. Here's what makes our service worth using:
We send real pricing from licensed Riverside installers upfront — no inflated starting price to "negotiate down," no bait-and-switch. What you see is what you pay.
Same system size, specs, and warranty terms across every quote — so you're comparing actual value, not a shell game of different products at different prices.
Your Solar Savings Report arrives by email — no phone call to trigger it, no appointment to sit through, no salesperson at your door. You decide if and when you want to move forward.
30% Federal Tax Credit: Most homeowners who go solar qualify for the federal Investment Tax Credit — 30% of total system cost off your tax bill. That's a significant reduction in what you pay, and it's built into every quote we send. The math for going solar in Riverside is hard to argue with.

"I went solar with Aaron because he was honest throughout the process. He clearly cares about providing a win/win experience for his customers."
"I got solar from Aaron a couple years ago when he worked for a big installation company. He's great and always answers promptly when I text him. I do kind of wish I had waited though. I see the new process he's built now and it's definitely better."
"This site is innovative for residential solar. It's simply a better process for us as agents to recommend to our clients."
