LOW TO NO UPFRONT COSTS FOR SOLAR POWER
Call to get a custom zero-commitment savings report and see how much you can save on your monthly utilities by switching to solar energy.
The Holy City offers Significant Solar Savings for Residents
Charleston sees nearly 230 days of sunshine each year. That alone makes the city an attractive place for residents to invest in renewable energy. As the effects of climate change push state energy planning to move away from fossil fuels, the average number of sunny days is not the only incentive for homeowners to consider.
With solar, your savings can start from the day your system is energized. Once you go solar you only have to worry about a consistent payment. As utility prices increase, your monthly payments stay the same! From there, you can also take advantage of Duke Energy’s solar rebate as well as tax credits on the cost of your system. With all these options there are plenty of ways to generate clean energy and save money doing it.
Join more than 130,000 homeowners who have made the switch. When you’re considering the cost of solar panels as an investment in your future, it helps to have a team of trusted experts to keep you informed throughout the process.

HOW DOES SOLAR SAVE YOU ON POWER COSTS IN CHARLESTON?
Charleston is one of our largest offices because of its government incentives and the city’s high number of sunny days. It would be enough to say more sunshine = more solar power = more savings. The reality, however, is homeowners in Charleston stand to save thousands of dollars through a variety of financial rebates and incentive programs.
Utility Rebates and Savings
When you pay your electricity bill every month, you’re essentially renting the right to your power. With solar power, you have the option of generating most or all of your energy through your own system. Duke Energy’s $.60/watt residential solar rebate available to Charleston homeowners could save you between $4,800 to $6,000, depending on the size of your system.
Net Metering
Some states offer net metering for homeowners. Net metering is when the electric company sees how much electricity you’ve used as well as how much you’ve produced. South Carolina’s net metering program lets homeowners receive a credit on their future utility bills if their system generates a surplus of energy. If you use less than expected, your excess power goes to the grid for others to use. If you generate enough power, the utility company may even compensate you for the power generated by your system.
SOLAR PANEL SAVINGS IN CHARLESTON
Use Sunshine to Power Your Home and Decrease Your Energy Bill
Blue Raven Solar is here to walk you through the ins and outs of renewable energy while also providing you with plenty of options—making green energy more affordable.
Our BluePower Plus+ plan offers the best aspects of a power purchase agreement (PPA) but with the flexibility and financial benefit of owning your own solar system. It starts with 18 months of free solar power after installation—meaning you save what you would spend on electricity.
The SmartStart program aims to save you money over your first five years. Your monthly loan amount starts at a low, promotional amount from the lender for your first 18 months. Once the promotion ends, Blue Raven Solar will send you a check for the difference to keep your payments consistently low.
BLUE RAVEN SOLAR PROVIDES TOP-TIER SOLAR EQUIPMENT
Investing in solar panels in Charleston offers long-term savings. You save on your monthly utility bills, benefit from government and utility incentives, and can add to your home equity. With the best hardware—available through Blue Raven Solar—you ensure your savings keep coming for as long as the system lasts.
We customize your solar system with black monocrystalline panels and the highest-grade microinverters to provide high quality. Combine this sleek look with our 25-year manufacturer warranty and you can have peace of mind knowing your system will provide reliable power.
THE NUTS AND BOLTS OF CLEAN ENERGY
Photons from the sun strike your solar panels and activate the electrons in the photovoltaic cells. This forms a circuit of electrical current that your microinverter then routes to your home—powering your house, electric devices, and appliances with clean energy.
BE YOUR OWN POWER PLANT
The utility company makes its money by holding the keys to your electricity. When you take control of your power, you become energy independent. When you take the time to explore and understand your renewable energy options—and choose a partner with your best interests at heart like Blue Raven Solar—you can invest in green energy to provide you and your home with your own power.

Our technician was incredibly knowledgeable and knew exactly how to fix the issue with our panels. He had to order a part, which arrived sooner than... he estimated. The work orders team were very helpful in scheduling the installation of the new part, and our technician arrived before he scheduled time to do the work. He was finished within the hour, and even updated the software on our system to make it more efficient, even though that wasn’t in his original scope of work. It’s a shame this thing maxes out at five stars: I’d give extra ones if I couldread more
