How Installing Solar Panels on Your Tacoma, WA Home Can Save on Energy Costs
In 2019, the City of Tacoma declared a climate emergency and implemented a plan to heal the local environment. Renewable energy is a key element of this plan, and you can do your part by installing solar panels to produce your own energy without producing polluting byproducts.
Despite Tacoma’s reputation for rainy days, homeowners in the area are great candidates for solar power. Solar panels can produce energy even in indirect sunlight, and Washington’s net metering mandate means any surplus energy created on bright days will be available as credits.
Your home city is ready for you to go green, and Blue Raven Solar will guide you through the process of cleaning up the environment and saving money along the way. We offer two exclusive financing plans to ease the upfront investment of a solar panel installation, and the sun does the rest to keep your energy costs low.
Reliable and Clean Energy
Reliable and Clean Energy
Instead of burning oil, natural gas or coal, residents who make the switch use energy created by light particles, which strike solar panels and create a current. This energy can be used right away or stored in storage solutions like batteries to power the home at a later date. Using solar energy reduces carbon emissions and gives Tacoma’s homeowners the opportunity to save on electricity costs.
Premium Solar Quality
Premium Solar Quality
Will installing solar panels provide reliable energy? Will the panels hold up over time? Is support available if needed? When residents consider going solar, quality should be top of mind. With Blue Raven Solar, Washington homeowners have a 25-year warranty for their solar panels, which means you can trust your panels will deliver energy to your home for decades to come.
Sun-Powered Savings
Sun-Powered Savings
As solar energy has become more mainstream, technology has led to lower equipment prices and longer system lifespans. This is making solar more affordable, and federal and local tax incentives offer additional opportunities to save on a solar panel installation. Within a few years, the energy cost savings often pay back the initial installation investment as well.
MAKE WAY FOR SOLAR PANELS IN YOUR NEST
The future is bright for renewable energy, and Blue Raven Solar wants to illuminate the path for Tacoma, Washington locals to save on energy costs and help the environment. Gray skies are no deterrent when it comes to harnessing green energy in the Pacific Northwest, and as one of the most well-reviewed solar companies in the nation we guide solar owners through each step of switching to clean energy.
Tacoma is known for its stunning glass art, iconic Tacoma Dome, and elusive views of Mt. Rainier on clear days, but “The City of Destiny” is also becoming a leader in green energy with its 2030 Climate Action Plan. From the military base to the shores of Puget Sound, the city is focused on reducing carbon emissions for a brighter future.
With a population of over 219,000, homes in Tacoma account for 10% of the total carbon emissions in the city. Blue Raven Solar is playing a part in lowering these emissions by showing residents how renewable energy can help make a positive impact.

THE COST OF A SOLAR PANEL INSTALLATION IN TACOMA, WASHINGTON
Every home is different—which is why Blue Raven Solar provides a no-commitment, personalized savings report for each homeowner interested in going solar in Washington. Our goal is to help you save money on your energy costs, increase the value of your home, and protect the environment by making the switch to clean energy.
When you talk to one of our solar experts we’ll walk you through the process of discovering how many solar panels you need installed based on your current energy usage, the optimal system design based on your home’s layout, the financing options right for your budget, and how much you can save. We’ll also walk you through how programs like net metering can increase the savings your solar system offers.
OUTFITTING YOUR NEST WITH THE BEST SOLAR EQUIPMENT
Solar technology has advanced, resulting in highly effective equipment at affordable costs. At Blue Raven Solar, we use tier-1, monocrystalline, photovoltaic (PV), black solar panels and high-quality inverters to convert the sun’s rays into usable energy for your home.
Our solar experts will work to develop a custom array design plan—determining the correct number of panels for your energy needs and placing them at the ideal 45-degree angle—to maximize the energy produced.
We also provide a 25-year manufacturer warranty, a 10-year workmanship and roof penetration warranty, and a production guarantee so Tacoma homeowners can rest easy about the quality of their solar equipment.
USING SOLAR PANELS TO CREATE ENERGY
The sun is a constant source of energy, shining down enough light every 90 minutes to power our entire global civilization for a year. Through solar panels and the right technology, a fraction of this light can be harnessed to energize your home. Solar panels turn sunshine into electricity, making it usable for your everyday life—from turning on your lights to running appliances to charging your phone.
ECOLOGICALLY FRIENDLY AND ECONOMICALLY FRIENDLY TOO
Solar power has become an affordable way to power your home and protect the environment. The Federal Investment Solar Tax Credit (ITC) offers a tax credit of 30% of the cost of your solar panel installation. In addition, local governments have also incentivized solar panels with tax initiatives and Blue Raven Solar offers major savings with financing plans.
SOLAR TECHNOLOGY BRIGHTENS CLOUDY DAYS
Tacoma residents might wonder how much sunlight is required to make installing solar panels worthwhile. In an area which experiences so many overcast days, can solar panels create enough energy to power your home?
Fortunately, the sun still emits photons, which can reach Earth through the clouds, allowing the photovoltaic panels of a solar panel installation to create currents even when the sun is hidden. Additionally, the state of Washington requires net metering, meaning on days when your system produces more than you use you will receive credits for the additional energy generated by your solar system.
SUPPORT THROUGHOUT THE SWITCH TO SOLAR
It’s important for homeowners to feel comfortable and confident as they transition to renewable energy, and Blue Raven Solar has experienced teams to support you every step of the way—from initial savings report to custom system design, permitting and HOA approval (if necessary), solar panel installation, and energization. Blue Raven Solar’s experienced, in-house teams will be with you to make the process straightforward and hassle-free.
KEEPING TACOMA BEAUTIFUL WITH CLEAN ENERGY
In the United States, over 60% of our energy comes from fossil fuels—an energy source being rapidly depleted. In contrast, the sun is shining down an inexhaustible source of power free of pollutants and other harmful byproducts. Tacoma is uniquely positioned, with abundant wildlife in Puget Sound and Mt. Rainier watching over the city from a distance. We want to help you keep the city beautiful by making it easy to install clean, environmentally-friendly energy on your home.
