Solar Panel Installation in Scottsdale
Residential Solar Designed Around Your Utility, Your Home, & Arizona’s Sun
Since 2007, we’ve been designing and installing solar systems across the Phoenix metro from our base in Goodyear. Scottsdale homeowners bring a specific set of variables to every project: strong year-round sun, homes that fall under either SRP or APS electric service, and communities that often carry HOA requirements. We build every system around those details so the design fits the property from day one.
Our focus is straightforward: lower your utility costs, add lasting value to your home, and reduce your carbon footprint with a system sized for how your home actually uses energy.

Our team holds NABCEP®, APS, and SMA certifications and is a member of the American Solar Energy Society. These aren’t credentials on paper. They reflect the standards we hold ourselves to on every installation.
We partner with manufacturers including LG Solar, Q Cells, and Sonnen to deliver systems built for long-term performance in Arizona’s climate. Every installation includes dependable warranty coverage, with 25-year panel protection on qualifying equipment.
Our consultations are detailed and genuinely low-pressure. We walk through your property, usage patterns, and options clearly, and you move forward when you’re ready.
SRP, APS, & HOA: What Scottsdale Homeowners Need to Know
Scottsdale properties are served by one of two utilities: Salt River Project (SRP) or Arizona Public Service (APS). Which utility serves your address matters because each has its own billing plans and export rates for solar production. Knowing that before sizing a system directly affects how you structure your solar investment.
Arizona operates under a net billing framework rather than traditional net metering. Under net billing, excess energy your system sends to the grid is credited at a rate below the retail electricity price. That export rate is locked in for a set period once your system interconnects, so the timing of installation can affect long-term economics.
If your home is in an HOA-governed community, Arizona Revised Statutes §33-439 and §33-1816 void any deed restriction or HOA rule that effectively prohibits solar installation. Homeowners associations may still set reasonable rules on panel placement and appearance, which typically means an architectural review committee submission before work begins.

Arizona Solar Incentives Available to Scottsdale Homeowners
Arizona offers several financial incentives that reduce the cost of going solar. We walk through all of them during your free consultation so you have a clear picture of what applies to your situation.
Arizona Residential Solar Energy Credit
Homeowners can claim 25% of a system’s installed cost against state income tax, up to $1,000 per year. Any unused credit carries forward for up to five years.
Sales Tax Exemption
Arizona exempts residential solar equipment from the state’s transaction privilege (sales) tax. Installation labor on qualifying residential solar projects is generally excluded as well, reducing upfront costs at purchase.
Property Tax Exemption
State law excludes the added home value from a solar installation from property tax assessments, so your tax bill doesn’t rise when your property value does.
Federal Credit Note
The federal Residential Clean Energy Credit (Section 25D) for homeowner-purchased systems ended for expenditures made after December 31, 2025. Homes financed through a third-party lease or power-purchase arrangement may still benefit from federal credit value passed through by the system owner. We can clarify how this affects your financing options during your consultation.

Our FAQ
-
What Other Incentives Are Available?The state government may offer numerous incentives when you install solar panels. For example, you may be eligible for a tax credit or be exempt from property taxes for a certain number of years. In the long run, investing in solar energy can lead to considerable savings.
-
How Can Solar Power Save Me Money?Solar power systems take energy from the sun and convert it into usable energy. This greatly reduces the amount of money you owe to your utility company every month. In some cases, you may even be able to eliminate your utility bills entirely.
-
How Long Does Solar Installation Take?There are several factors that can affect the time it takes to install your solar panels. For example, the size of the panels you have chosen and where they are being installed will greatly influence the lengthiness of the process. We will determine the size of the system you need and the length of time it will take during your evaluation. A solar installation can often take between 10-12 weeks.
