The Process is Simple With Solar Technologies

We’ll analyze your usage based on your average monthly electric bill to determine if solar is right for you. Then we’ll present you with a proposal that will include renderings of your custom-designed solar system and financing options.
Step 2: Your Contract
Our simple agreement will give you all the details you need about your solar panels and the full scope of work so there will be no surprises. We offer the Bay Area’s longest workmanship warranty, and your SunPower solar system comes with a best-in-industry 25-year complete power and product warranty.
