The state of Oregon is known for being peculiar. Some fun facts? There’s no sales tax, you don’t have to pump your own gas, it has a breathtaking coastline, and yes – it rains a lot. But despite the rain, Oregon is a great place for homeowners to make the switch to solar energy. Oregon gets less rain than Germany, the world’s leader in reliable, pollution-free solar energy use. With enough solar to power over 100,000 homes in the state, Oregon homeowners can make the switch to clean, renewable energy today.
Plus, 2021 is the perfect time to go solar! Solar companies in Oregon are set to install 17 times the amount of solar panels they’ve installed over the last five years, and prices have also fallen 38% in that time. With federal and local incentives to buy solar panels, there is no better time to make the switch. Learn about going solar in Oregon with Blue Raven Solar today.

After we verify that you are a good candidate for solar panel installation, our design team will work with you to create a maximum efficiency plan for your roof. We will be able to answer any questions that you may have about the solar panel installation process, solar tax credits, or our financing options, including our industry-leading Blue Power Plus. Once we decide which financing option is best for you and your family we will create and sign the solar panel installation agreement. We will also take care of all necessary permits.

Oregon has one of the most beautiful and diverse landscapes in the United States. From the coastline, to rivers and lakes and forests, lovers of the outdoors have plenty to do and see in Oregon. It is also one of the most biking friendly states, and one of the most environmentally friendly places to live.
Because Oregonians love their nature, it’s no surprise that the state is a huge supporter of solar energy. In fact, they love solar so much that they want 50% of energy production to be through renewable energy resources by 2040. With that said, let’s see the local solar benefits Oregon is offering to their citizens:
Net Metering – Oregon is a great state to be a solar owner because all utilities must offer net metering. This means that all excess energy production will carry over to your next month’s bill. Unfortunately, Oregon’s net metering program does not roll over more than one month.
Solar Rebates – Starting in January of 2020, Oregon began a new solar rebates program that offers new residential solar buyers $0.20 per watt on their system. There is a catch on how much this rebate can save you as it has a maximum payout of $5,000 or 40% of the cost of your system.
Property Tax Exemption – All solar panels in Oregon are exempt from property tax. This means that the extra value added to your home from your solar system will not be added to your property tax.
Should I Go Solar in the Beaver State?
More and more Oregon residents are making the switch to solar with the help of local and federal incentives. At Blue Raven Solar, we believe that solar power is the future of energy, today. While many solar companies focus on markets where it’s sunny and solar might be a more obvious choice, we want to give homeowners everywhere a chance to go solar with a top-tier solar company. Some might think that Oregon is too gloomy and rainy for solar panels to be worth it, but what they don’t know is that it can still save Oregon homeowners thousands of dollars while helping them to reduce their carbon footprint. Solar panels can still produce energy in cloudy weather, and Oregon receives more sun than Germany, one of the world’s leaders in solar energy.
Energy is more than numbers on your utility meter or the cost of your monthly electrical bill. Everything you do to help conserve energy has a major impact on our environment. And as a bonus, it has a positive effect on your finances. Solar power protects you from rising energy costs and increases the value of your home. Less than 3% of the current U.S. population are enjoying the benefits & savings of solar energy. Our joy is knowing that our customers are saving money and reducing their carbon footprint. We want the same for you.
