Home Solar Installation in Richmond
Solar Is Powering Richmond
The capital of Virginia and one of America’s oldest major cities is also one of the best cities to live for affordability, employment, and outdoor recreation. Richmond is also the perfect place to go solar in 2021. Federal incentives will save you thousands of dollars on your solar system, and many utility companies offer incentives for customers who wish to go solar.
Richmond residents want to keep the air and water clean and the environment flourishing. But there’s another reason people are installing solar panels systems. Richmond and surrounding area homeowners are saving big on utility bills.
Solar cuts down the amount you pay for electricity to your utility company. You produce the electricity your home needs and the surplus energy goes back into the power grid. Solar panels free up your hard-earned money to let you and your family do more of what you enjoy.
Between a federal tax credit and other local incentives, solar has become a no-brainer for Virginians. Plus, homeowners who own their panels will almost always end up saving more money than those who choose to lease. Read more to learn about going solar in Richmond.

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 in Richmond 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 Solar, 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.
Virginia residents want to keep their home clean and beautiful, so Richmond homeowners are jumping at the chance to become a part of the renewable energy movement and switch to solar. 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 Virginia, so please get in touch to find out how we can serve you.
We provide solar to many areas within and surrounding Richmond.
It’s time to take control of your electricity costs in 2021 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.

Blue Raven Solar has been fantastic to work with throughout the entire process. From the young man that knocked on our door, to Forrest our salesman, to the installers. They all knew what they were doing and how to interact with us to answer questions and know that we made a great decision. What a great experience for us!

It's been easy to work with Blue Raven on this solar panel install. They are proactive in making sure that the process is understood and moves along, and are responsive to questions and concerns. They have also been flexible in sizing the panel install (we considered small, medium and large numbers of panels). The install crew was professional and considerate. I ended up talking with several of them over the time they were here, and they are a good group of guys. Very happy with the overall process and install so far.read more

Blue Raven solar rocks! The guys worked so hard up on the roof in the heat but were so polite and cheerful. All of my questions were answered and they seemed to go out of their way to make the install experience pleasant. I highly recommend this company!

The install was today and I'm very impressed with the professionalism of the crew. They were very personable and very considerate of what was best for my needs. They adjusted the plan when they determined a better approach from pre-needs. It meant more work and a little more cost to them but meant a better install for me. Can't wait until the inspector gives me the green light to go hot.

BLUE Raven has been a pleasant experience to deal with. The gentlemen who installed the panels were very nice, friendly and respectful. They let me know what was going on and explained if I had any questions.They definitely care about the work they do and the service they provide

This was one of the best big purchase experiences I've ever had. EVERYONE from their canvassers to their sales people to their install team was more professional, patient, understanding, competent, fast, and easy to work with than any other similar team I have ever hired. Not only did they give us quick and easily digestible information every step of the way, but they seemed to match my excitement about the project every step of the way. They helped us get a new roof put on before the solar went in, they explained every step in the process, and everything within their control went according to plan. The install took a hair longer than anticipated, but the crew never made a decision without talking to me first to ensure a positive experience. Highly recommend!read more

I have went Solar!The service from Blue Raven Solar has been wonderful. When it came time to install my panels, the two installation guys were so helpful, considerate, and willing to answer my questions. They kept me up to date on the status and process of the installation. These guys were awesome. My salesman Mack was instrumental in this process. Great experience. Only two final steps left and then I will be producing power from my system.

From the very beginning, Blue Raven solar has been everything I expect from a company. Our salesperson, Jon, has kept us abreast every step of the way. I told him from the day I met him that we want solar. He was never pushy, but he was persistent. I cancelled an appointment, he made another one. I forgot to fill out paperwork, he reminded me - but never did he try to talk me into anything I didn't tell him I wanted - just gave me the right amount of gentle nudge a procrastinator needs to get things done and I appreciated it.The installers came today and were absolutely professional. They let me know what they were doing, walked me through the setup and helped me with programming the smart thermostats. We have brand new carpet and they wore protective booties whenever they had to walk on it. Connor, Brennan, Brandon, and Brian where great!read more

Wow, super easy! Blue Raven took care of everything. The roofer crew was great, on time and clean up after. I had gutter covers place and that team was on time and did a great job. Then the Solar panel install team came and they were efficient and explained every steps. Everyone answered all my questions and were very knowledgeable. Thanks Blue Raven!!!

Sales Engineer Zach was very helpful in explaining the whole process at the start and determining what system would best fit our needs. When it came to the install day, Installers Braden and Manny were awesome to work with. They answered all my questions in regards to the install. Both did an excellent job installing the solar panels and cleaning up after the install. Very happy with how it turned out. Thanks!!

Blue Raven Solar has been fantastic from the first inquiry all the way through the process. In just less than a month, I have a fully operational, professionally installed and inspected solar system on my house. The rep I worked with, CJ, was accommodating to my schedule and answered every question I threw at him. The whole process couldn't have been easier: Blue Raven coordinated all permits, inspections, etc, and kept me informed every step of the way. The installers were very efficient and professional. Highly recommended company.read more

Had Blue Raven install our solar system. Punctual, install done on date indicated.Very professional and cannot say enoughgood things about installers who installed the system in about 6 hours during rainstorm in January! Finished work looks great and install layout was exactly as we were expecting. Five stars!

Blue Raven Solar has been terrific in getting solar installed on our home. In particular:1) Blue Raven was totally transparent throughout the process. There were no nasty surprises.2) In all aspects (sales, payment, quality of work) in dealing with them, I have found them to be completely honest and professional.3) In terms of dates, times, quality of work, quality of materials, scope of work, they met every commitment. I never had to complain or ask twice.4) They dealt seamlessly (to me) with all of the needed permitting and inspections.5) We needed to have our house's roof replaced. (The roof replacement was included in the contract.) Blue Raven supplied a contractor (Idaho Roofing) which also did a terrific job. ( Idaho Roofing did an equally excellent job of meeting my needs/expectations.)6) Blue Raven was always responsive in a timely way in dealing with my questions/needs/concerns.I've been extremely happy with the results of our solar install and would definitely hire Blue Raven again. I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting a solar installation.read more

From our first interaction and throughout the whole process, Blue Solar's communication and support was phenomenal. They served as guides, let me know what to do and when to move the project forward. Racing against the winter weather, they safely and efficiently installed our system. Plus, they recommended a superb roofer to coordinate a new roof with the solar installation. Each interaction was friendly, and they were prompt with follow-through. Very pleased with the whole experience! Jared & John were exceptional!read more

Since day 1 this company has been on point! Mitch was an excellent, well educated salesman that was only interested in one thing....saving us money. With Boise growing rapidly and increases in utilities every 6 months we were able to take our power bill from close to $300 in the summer down to $130. The power bill is now consistent with no fluctuation. Plus, once the panels are paid off, no more power bill. The install team consisted of Devin, Jake, and Brennan whom showed up right on time and were extremely professional from the get go. It only took them 4-5 hours to install 30 panels and run all of the wiring! When they were finished, they fully explained the workings of the system and the app used to run/monitor the system. I am extremely pleased with the service I received, as good customer service is hard to find these days. Thanks Blue Raven, give these guys a raise.Chrisread more

First off, I have been looking to go solar for a while. I have spoke to about every solar company in the treasure valley. Most seem to be alright but I went with Blue Raven because they seem to be the best. The sales rep (CJ) was super friendly and very knowledgeable. Up front about everything. When it came time to sign paperwork and finalize a design, Blue Raven was very easy to work with. My system was just installed and even the install crew was amazing. There were a few things that didn’t go as planned, but they took care of everything and made it work beyond what I expected. Even left me a few boxes of LED bulbs. I highly recommend Blue Raven to everyone.read more

Although I did not end up purchasing, I really appreciate the thoughtfulness and time of our sales representative. Mitch was very knowledgeable, professional and courteous. I never felt pressured to jump into something I did not want to do. The timing of investing in solar at this time did not make sense since we are planning on moving in the next couple of years.Thanks again Mitch for your time.

So far, very happy with the service I’ve received from Blue Raven Solar. Ian, the sales rep, was very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions. If he didn’t know the answer, he found the answer and got right back to me. I’ve been kept informed by the Blue Raven group of each step in the process and when that step has been completed. Jay and his group did a great job on the install and had it done in no time. They answered all my questions and Brennen was very patient in helping me get the Ecobee thermostat set up. My panels haven’t been “turned on” yet and I’m really looking forward to see how they perform through the winter.read more

Blue Raven was wonderful to work with - very friendly, knowledgeable, and thorough. We live in the Boise, ID, area and worked with Manny B. He really took the time to understand our needs and the obstacles to going solar. He answered all our questions and his follow-up was exceptional. Although it wasn't the right time for us to go solar, Blue Raven Solar will be our first choice when the time comes. What a great company and great people!

The Blue Raven Solar team was thorough and professional from start to finish. From the salesman, Jordan, to the installation crew here in Boise, we were impressed. They took time to answer any questions we had and addressed my concerns when I raised them. They made adjustments to our array when I asked and made sure the roof structure and array were secure and sturdy. I appreciated the intermittent updates as well as we went through the whole process of city approvals and such. We are looking forward to helping the planet by harnessing solar energy!read more

Blue Raven is a great company with whom to work. They got the permits needed, upgraded the electrical panel and worked with our electrical company. Once everything was done and the panels arrived, they installed the panels in 10 hours. They were efficient, friendly and courteous.

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the sales team to the support staff and installers, Blue Raven employees were professional and friendly. Everyone was very respectful of our home and time. They were handed a challenging job (42 panels) and completed it in 100+ degree temperatures. Safety was a huge priority for the team and upon completion, they ensured the job site was cleaner than they found it. We highly recommend Blue Raven and all of their staff!!

I'm not normally much for reviews, but wanted to post one here for many reasons. I work for Blue Raven, and this was the first system I sold. I wanted the full customer experience to be able to communicate that to my customers. You can say I'm like a secret shopper, except that I paid for my solar system!After about six months working for blue raven, and my system being energized for the same amount of time I'm thrilled to write a 5-star review. Blue raven is a company that stands behind its product, its customers, and does a lot of good for people financially, and for the environment. The one stand out in the company for me at installation, and continues to be from all my customers are the install crews. Jay installed my system and he is a true professional. He communicated every step of the process, was prompt, materials were waiting for him when he arrived on site and he even finished ahead of schedule. When he was done he walked me through the process and all of the equipment and left the area exactly how we found it. My customers continue to Rave about him and his crew, their efficiency and standard of work.I look forward to a long future with blue raven and helping homeowners Go Solar. I would definitely recommend blue raven for anybody, feel free to reach out and I'd be happy to see if it makes sense for your house! Jon.McPherson at BlueRavensolar.Comread more

Blue Raven Solar has been a great company to work with. They are knowledgeable and efficient at what they do. They did everything for us so that all we had to do was be present on the day of installation. They took care of the permit with the city, approval from our HOA, paperwork with our local power company, and scheduled the inspections. Installation took less than 5 hours with a 2 person crew. The crew was 2 very nice gentlemen that knew what they were doing and courteous to me and my children.

I was very impressed with the sales team we worked with. Not pushy, very informative, and no pressure to move forward with the sale. Communication and customer service was great throughout the process. They did make an error with the hardware required for our application, which required submitting a modified permit and delays for our installation. Even then, Blue Raven handled all the details and were very apologetic for the delays. Had it not been for the great install team, another business may have just used the parts they received and made it work. Overall I'm extremely happy with the install and looking forward to producing some energy!read more

Blue Raven solar did a great job for us from start to finish. CJ Forrest, their sales rep, was our first contact with them. He was kind, courteous, easy to talk to, and explained the benefits to us without any pressure. He also went the extra mile, arranging for our old outdated solar panel to be removed. Then the install crew from Meridian did a great job in a timely manner. They were also very courteous and easy to work with. If I recall right, Jay led the install team. Overall a great experience!

Blue Raven installed my residential system. This was a 51 panel job on a relatively steep roof. They completed the job in 2 days with no issues. I was concerned about the possible damage to my roof but they explained the install process to me and showed me the mounting brackets for the panels and how they worked. I am impressed with their knowledge and feel comfortable about the brackets on the roof now. They have been very professional and patient with my questions and concerns throughout this process. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade to a solar system.read more

When they were done they explained the system to me and answered any questions I had. The employees in the office called to schedule a time for inspection shortly after the field crew showed up. The office staff also called to set up an appointment for the new thermostat installation within an hour of the install crew completing work. Overall I am extremely satisfied with the service provided by Blue Raven Solar.read more

I just completed a year of solar energy installed by Blue Raven and am completely satisfied. I did have a micro inverter go out shortly after installation on 1 panel but it was quickly repaired. The thing that worried me about solar was the cosmetic look but the panels were installed in a inconspicuous place on the roof and they matched the shingles really well. I have yet to have anyone notice the panels before seeing the sign first. The job was well thought out and the guys that did the work were very courteous and professional. I would highly recommend Blue Raven to anyone. When you see your bill from Idaho Power, you too will be satisfied!read more

These guys are awesome! The sales experience was amazing, thorough, easy to understand, and even after the system was installed our salesman still answers my calls. The install crew was just incredible. They were extraordinarily professional, kept a clean job site, and were happy to answer every question I had while they were working. I would recommend Blue Raven to anyone that wants solar done right.

From day one our experience with Blue Raven has been excellent. The personnel from the sales team to the development team in SLC and the Installation crew and inspectors, everyone associated with Blue Raven has been professional, knowledgeable and courteous. The pricing model we settled on was explained thoroughly and all of our questions were answered. The Blue Raven staff were always prompt and responsive. We are now looking forward to our solar experience.

Installation was easy, crew was efficient and polite. No leaks or structural problems after 18 months. Started producing energy immediately and makes more power than we could use! The tech team is very knowledgeable and helpful. Am also very pleased with the look on the roof of my new house. I have recommended this company and their product to my neighbors. Would do it again!

Our sales guy, Matt, was very kind and went over every question we had about getting solar installed. When it came time for the installation, the two installers did a great job. They kept things clean and were very nice and walked us through everything. We are still waiting for the final inspection, but the employees have been great!! Thank you!

Sales, Todd Nichols, was amazing to work with. He educated me on how the process worked from beginning to end. After experiencing the process he was dead on and exactly what he said! No surprises! No hidden issues! Just seamless and easy which is how it should be. Install went smooth and now I"m all the closer to seeing solar energy and getting rid of my power bill!

I'm not one to leave many reviews, but this time I had too...Mitch was my salesman, and he was very honest & professional! In addition, I want to give the installation guys on Boise ID Crew 2 Phenomenal accolades! Taylor, Braden and Dilian hit the ground running, and never stopped until the job was done! They were all professional, knowledgeable and their work ethic was impeccable! If the solar system works as good as these guys, I will be a 110% satisfied! Hands down the best crew, I will definitely request their installation services on my next building! Scottread more

Everyone at Blue Raven has been so personable from the salesperson to the guys in the field. Super surprised that we really didn’t have to lift a finger - Blue Raven contacted our HOA, the city, and the actual install was very timely. Seeing an eventual end to a power bill by some-day owning your own power is something to look forward to. Going to a renewable source of energy won’t save the world but it’ll help.

I was worried we were not going to have enough time before the winter weather hit us to have our solar panels installed. Blue Raven was able to move our scheduled install date ahead of a coming storm. The sales staff, customer care staff and installation technicians and electricians were all superb! From day one this has been one of the best experiences I’ve had from top to bottom with everyone involved. It is unnerving buying into a technology you don’t quite understand. Our sales person, Austin, explained the details of owning solar so clearly, and without the all too familiar pressure sales tactics, that I’m a true believer in the value these solar panels will bring. The installation staff were friendly and professional. They knew what they were doing and were true to their time estimates. My garage and exterior spaces were just the same when they left as before they arrived. I couldn’t be more pleased with the job they did.read more

So far Blue Raven has been exceptional quality and customer service. I had done research before talking to them, and when talking to them everything they said lined up with the research I had already done. They are very friendly and honest. Went over exactly what it would mean for me with both my power bill and bill for the solar panels. They answered all of my questions completely. When it came time for installation they were there on time and done early. The installation team was very courteous and friendly did a great job and cleaned up after themselves when they were done. So far I have zero complaints or worries with what I have got done with Blue Raven.read more

Install team did a great job. There was a little bit of delay getting to installation, due to permitting back-ups at the county, but once that was done, everything has gone smoothly. The panels look great and were installed quickly. Looking forward to final inspection and turning the system on.

The work was done very well. Everything done in a timely matter. On the day of install, the time was set for 7:00 am and the workers did not show up until 8:15. I was a bit upset and with some communication this could have been alleviated. The only other critic I had was that the evening of the install rolled around and we noticed that it was getting cold in the house. Upon further inspection, the breaker for the furnace had been tripped and was never reset. Really, all in all I would recommend this company to any family member or friend. They were very efficient and we are very happy with everything.read more

Brady did an amazing job explaining every step of the process from why solar to cost to permits and install. Idaho crew 4 was my install team, they did phenomenal at getting the work done fast and accurately. They left my home cleaner than when they arrived ensuring they collected all their trash (including the cardboard the wind carried). Highly recommend both Brady and Crew 4

Everything about my experience with Blue Raven was top notch. My salesman, Keith, was incredibly knowledgeable. He was helpful regarding dealing with my HOA, the placement of the panels, which we changed to avoid having them visible from the front of the house. He responded quickly to questions, even after typical business hours. Our installation crew was right on time, went over everything before they started, and helped teach me about our new smart thermostats. They cleaned up when they were done--it's as if they were never there.read more

Wow! What can we say about Blue Raven Solar. They provided a fantastic customer experience. From the first contact with Brady to setting the installation appointment to the actual installation by Jay and his team. Brady made sure the took the time to explain the solar process fully to our understanding. Communication was awesome. If we had a question, someone was quickly there to provide answers. And the installation could not have gone any smoother. The team was professional, courteous, knowledgeable, and most of all, able to explain all of the what we need to know and do to get our system up and running. We have already recommended Blue Raven Solar to whomever we talk house with.Bruce and Brandyread more

Their crew was on time, quick and cleaned up everything. They also reassessed the panel positioning that would make the system more efficient and fit better on our roof once the on-site crew were able to re-measure. Instead of just arriving and slapping them on. Great customer service!

The installation crew came promptly, extremely professional and polite. They were informative. They answered my questions thoroughly, and offered to explain the new panel mounting system to me. I had concerns about drilling holes into my newer roof. I was worried about future leaks, but their explanation of their sealing methods relieved my anxiety. When the new system was installed, the sky was overcast and the panels weren't producing. The crew leader offered to come back and double-check the system after the sky cleared. I couldn't ask for better service. Thanks for everything, guys!read more

Great company to work with. The sales person was very knowledgeable. The financial contract worked out very well. They were quick and courteous during the installation. They handled all the paperwork. The hardware has operated flawlessly and effortlessly from our standpoint. We were within 112 kWh of generating all the electricity we used for the 1st year of operation. So, let's see, at 9 cents per kWh, we purchased about $10 of electricity over the year. That is close enough in our opinion!!

Blue Raven was punctual and friendly. Overall, they respected our pricacy and asked to be let in to the house when needed and asked for a member to stay close.

After the installation, the inspector came in and verified all was successfully done. Very pleased with Blue Raven. Highly recommend it.

He absolutely made sure everything was exactly to our liking. He really listened to make sure what we need the system to perform now and what we need it to do the future would be correct. The installation crew was Phenomenal. Very friendly, professional, and courteous. The crew even reworked some of the panels to fit all of them on the main house instead of splitting it between the main house and guesthouse saving us money and increasing our wattage!

I had my system installed last August and it's been life changing! My electricity bill is on average $5. This was my first winter, running my gas furnace, Christmas lights and a space heater downstairs, my highest bill was $25.00. Well worth my investment. Customer service is really good. Real people. Real answers. No salesman mentality. They really do honestly see if the system works for your house at your location and you ultimately make the decision if you want to go ahead. I am really happy I did. Thank you Blue Raven 💙.read more

I honestly thought we would never go solar. I work in the mines and solar does not help my line of work by any means but I can’t stand Idaho power so we decided to take a look. Way cheaper than I thought. We pay a monthly bill that is about the same as what we were paying and there is a bunch of options to help you switch over that work for really anyone. You’re paying a bill anyways, we just see an end to ours now! All of our friends are making the switch as well we are all pretty happy!
Misty Hoper
15:41 04 Feb 19
Super happy with our system thus far. Easy to make the switch thought it was going to take awhile but we were only without power for maybe 4 hours. We haven’t had a power bill in 6 months now and it is such a relief. We are terrible at remembering to pay bills as we travel a lot so this is a serious blessing. It was way more cost effective than we imagined and it’s pretty cool to own your own power source. Thanks Blue Raven!

We love having the power company send us our bill online each month and to see that the amount of our bill is: $0.00. We have not paid a power bill in many months and it makes us glad we had the solar panels installed. The selling point for us is to think of the difference in renting your home or buying it. We are our own power company. It is great!!

Working with Blue Raven Solar and the Boise team to convert our home to solar was a fantastic experience! This company has the implementation steps down to a science. From sales, to customer service, scheduling, and the install team, everyone was so polite, professional, and treated us great! You work hand-in-hand with the implementation leader who comes to your home and gives an analysis and design of what your house would require for a conversion, explains all the benefits (including tax rebates), and details out every step of what's to come. They do all the paperwork with the city, your HOA, and Idaho Power, which saved us all the hassle. It honestly couldn't have been any easier for us. We're extremely pleased and so happy to have made the switch with Blue Raven! Thank you!read more

All of the required paperwork was completed electronically, Blue Raven took care of the permitting with the city , the HOA and the approval process with Idaho Power. The installation crew showed up at the promised time and completed the installation with minimal disruption and left the work site clean.

Our experience with Blue Raven has been excellent. We are 6 months in with our system and could not be happier. For those reading through some of the other less than stellar comments I would just suggest that you listen and ask questions while the great Blue Raven team explains all of the details. There is a lot to digest when considering going with solar but I was impressed with the patience both during and after the sale with questions and clarifications we needed to feel comfortable with our investment. It has been great for us. We installed in the spring (which I highly recommend if possible) so we were able to build up our energy credits right away. Regardless of when you install it is a long term investment that has been paying off for us.read more

Going Solar through Blue Raven was a very simple and easy process. No headaches! It took two and a half months or so from start to finish. They took care of contacting our HOA and the city for permits and inspection, which took the longest. The install itself took a day. Needless to say, they are a great option if you are considering to go solar.

Is Going Solar Worth It in Richmond, Virginia?
Discover Your Why for Going Solar
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. The first step we help homeowners take is to show them the major benefits of going solar. By exploring possible benefits, it is so much easier for homeowners to determine their “why,” or their main reason for going solar. Whether your “why” is to save thousands of dollars on electric bills over the life of your solar system, to reduce your carbon footprint, to own your electricity and be independent, or to increase the value of your home, knowing why you’re making the switch to solar will help you determine whether it’s worth it for you.
Estimating the Cost and Savings of Solar for your Home
With a clearer reason to go solar in mind, homeowners will have an easier time determining whether the solar panels are worth their price. 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.
Our PledgeOur goal is to make solar energy accessible and affordable for every homeowner. Read the Blue Raven Solar pledge.
