Home Solar Installation in Idaho Falls
Solar is Powering More Outdoor Adventures in Idaho Falls
For years now, Idaho Falls has stood apart from other small cities as a regional center of innovation for medicine, food, and energy. Locals, like you, are committed to higher standards when it comes to quality of life and preserving an unparalleled natural environment. This is why so many Idaho solar companies are installing residential solar panels. Solar power cuts electricity costs to free your hard earned cash, improve your quality of life, and give you energy independence.
This kind of freedom allows you to spend more time adventuring in a world-class outdoors area that includes the Snake River, Tetons, Yellowstone and so much more. Through the IFP’s net metering program, Blue Raven Solar customers “can generate electricity through the use of renewable energy sources while still maintaining connection to the City’s electrical grid.” All Blue Raven Solar customers using Idaho Falls Power are also able to sell back the excess power they produce with solar panels to the city’s electric grid.
Our solar company makes this process of going solar easy by handling all necessary city permitting and paperwork. Plus, we will help you take advantage of generous federal and Idaho state tax incentives. But you will want to hurry. With ever-changing Idaho clean energy legislation, solar incentives and rebates can change. Right now, Idaho Falls is one of the hottest small cities in the country for solar. It’s time for you to take advantage of 5-year-low solar energy costs with Blue Raven Solar.

How Solar Energy Works
How solar energy works is a combination of technology, economics, and customer service. But it begins with the sun beaming enough energy to earth each hour to power global civilization for a year. With the right equipment, you can harness your share of it and power your life on sunlight. Blue Raven Solar combines all those into a hassle-free experience to make going solar almost as easy as flipping a switch.
The Technology: Photovoltaics, power inverters, net metering, and photons from the sun create a clean, renewable power source for homeowners. Switching to solar shrinks utility bills and your carbon footprint while boosting the value of your home.
The Economics: Falling equipment prices, lucrative tax incentives, and attractive financing make solar energy more accessible to average homeowners than ever. In today’s energy market, rooftop solar often pays back its initial price in just a few years.
The Service: Going solar happens in steps: consultation, design, permitting, installation, inspection, and energization. Each step involves its own process. When you go solar with Blue Raven, our team works hard to keep the whole experience trouble-free.
Become Your Own Power Plant
At Blue Raven this is the heart of what we believe: our nation’s current power generation is not sustainable. As a nation, we still get over 67% of our electricity from the burning of fossil fuels.
Regardless if one believes in global warming or not, we can all agree that the toxic pollution that these carbon-based energy sources spew into the atmosphere is not a good thing. The simple test is this: would you like your family to live next to a coal-fired power plant?
Standard electricity is produced from fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas. When burned, these fuels emit chemical gases causing pollution and harm to our environment. Fossil fuels are not only destructive to the environment, but they are also a limited resource. Solar electricity is by far one of the cleanest forms of energy.
Idaho residents are jumping at the chance to become a part of the renewable energy movement. We’re excited to help you throughout your solar journey and hope to help you make a positive impact on the environment while saving you thousands on your electricity bill! As America’s #1 solar installer, we continue to grow throughout Idaho, so please get in touch to find out how we can serve you.
We provide solar to many areas within and near Idaho Falls, including Ammon, Rexburg, Blackfoot, Rigby, Shelley, Iona, and more.
It’s time to take control of your electricity costs in 2020 with Blue Raven Solar. Give us a call or request a free custom quote. It only takes a couple of minutes to find out how much you could be saving with one of the top companies in the solar industry.

The installation went very smoothly and you really have to look hard to see the panels on my roof! I have the app that allows me to see how much power I am generating and how many equivalent trees planted that comes to. It feels good doing something positive for the environment.

Blue raven was very professional and worked diligently. The crew was very respectful and Taylor did a great job explaining things to me and making sure I understood everything. The installation did not take very long and they left the place nicer when they left. 🙂 Great customer service and I will defiantly be recommending Blue Raven to my friends and family.

We have been very happy with Blue Raven. There are a lot of solar panel companies in our area and what we have appreciated about Blue Raven is their ability to keep us as consumers informed and their following through on their commitments. We love having solar panels and are thrilled to be producing our own power!

Very professional from the first ring of the door to the end of the project. Explained the product well. I enjoyed watching them work. The job was broken down into teams. They kept me informed every step of the project. I am currently waiting for Idaho Power to come and replace old meter with new one. I can't wait to see my 1st power bill. Thank you.

We were very impressed with the professionalism of the entire process from our initial introduction and then appointment with Mark to the inspection and then final installation. Our questions were addressed and answered quickly. Levi and Austin walked me through every step to set up and sink my new ecobee thermostat. Levi made sure before the day was over everything worked perfectly and that we understood how. They cleaned up everything and even vacuumed after. We were surprised and pleased with how smoothly we have transitioned to solar and highly recommend Blue Raven!!read more

ABOUT BLUE RAVEN SOLAR IN IDAHO FALLS
When you look around in Idaho Falls, you’re in the Snake River Plain of the Rocky Mountains, and under the beautiful Grand Tetons, it’s easy to feel awe-inspired by nature. Every sight is a reminder that we ought to do our part as individuals to keep the environment clean. But it’s the perfect place to take advantage of solar for other reasons as well. Idaho Falls averages over 200 sunny days per year, not that it always has to be sunny to produce energy. It’s also a great place to take advantage of power savings!
Blue Raven Solar is among the most well-reviewed, fastest-growing solar companies in the nation (among the top suppliers on SolarReviews, Google, and Yelp for Idaho Falls). As a full-service in-house solar provider, we do not outsource our work to any contractors. This means a speedy installation—1 to 2 months in most cases—and superior customer service for you. We take care of design, permitting, engineering, electrical, installation, paperwork, and everything else.
It’s been almost 4 years now since we opened our Idaho Falls, Blue Raven Solar headquarters. And while there are many reasons why we’re here, these are the biggest:
- Idaho Falls Embraces Solar Power: Few other small cities are as innovative and committed to preserving nature as Idaho Falls.
- Idaho Falls Deserves the Best Solar Savings: With our no money down, 18-months free solar power, and energy production guarantee, we knew we could help people like you save money with solar like never before.
- Idaho Falls Values Solar Quality: While there are many local solar companies to choose from, we believe that our commitment to better solar technology helps Blue Raven rise above other solutions.

Should I Go Solar in Idaho Falls?
Idaho experiences all four seasons, and sometimes winter can feel twice as long as the summer. So, you may be wondering: Are solar panels even worth it in Idaho Falls?
Idaho receives just about the average annual sunlight for the United States, and although the snow may seem bitter and cold, the state receives less than the average annual precipitation. So, the sun can still shine down on your solar panels to power your home. In fact, the cold is even better for your panels than extreme heat – and because panels absorb the heat from the sun, any snowfall should melt pretty quickly throughout the day, keeping your panels producing power. Solar panels are built to withstand rain, storms, hail, snow, hurricanes, or even someone standing on them (although we don’t recommend that).
Most homeowners switch to solar for the monthly and long-term savings and to reduce their carbon footprint. At Blue Raven Solar, we know that every homeowner is different. So even if a homeowner has a great reason to go solar, sometimes that homeowner’s situation will not permit a viable way to save money by going solar. That is why we pre-qualify each of our customers before they start on their solar journey. Some scenarios that prevent homeowners from going solar are their roof doesn’t get enough sunlight exposure, they don’t have a high enough or taxable income, or their power bill is simply too low. If a homeowner fits into any of these categories, we recommend that they not move forward with solar. By setting this standard, our customers know what they are getting themselves into before they make any payments.
When a customer passes the pre-qualifying stage, we know that their home can greatly benefit from going solar. Thus, we ask the homeowner for their latest energy bills in order to build out an accurate solar proposal. Our proposal team will use a homeowner’s billing information as well as sunlight tracking software to determine how many panels their home will need to offset 100% of their energy bill (or whatever % the homeowner desires). With that proposal built out, one of our solar specialists will personally or virtually meet the homeowner and walk them through the cost, savings, and installation process of going solar with Blue Raven Solar. If a homeowner has any questions, the solar specialist will be able and willing to answer those questions with full transparency. At the end of the meeting, homeowners will be left with a physical or digital proposal that will detail how long it will take to pay off the homeowner’s initial investment. Typically, the average homeowner will see a return on their investment after six to nine years of installation. If the solar owner decides to finance their panels with a loan, we do our best to make sure that the monthly loan payment is lower than their original electricity bill payment so that they are saving from day one of their solar journey.
The Blue Raven Way
Determining whether solar is worth it completely depends on a homeowner’s situation. It is our priority to help our customers become aware of how their current situation connects to solar. Thus, our number one priority always is the customer, which is why we have over 3,000 5-star reviews across online platforms. We’ve spent years perfecting our customer service and prioritize your opinion. If you are wanting to determine whether solar is worth it for your home and unique situation, we recommend that you request a free solar quote and a solar consultation by filling out an application on our estimate your savings page.
