Glendale Water and Power offers 1:1 net metering — one of the best solar export policies left in California. Pair that with 280+ sunny days and a rate around 25¢/kWh and the savings case here is strong.

GWP has been raising rates for years, and most customers find out after the fact. Solar gives you access to a competitor that’s cheaper, cleaner, and more reliable, plus it locks in your rate so future GWP increases stop being your problem. No money down. Lower monthly bills starting month one.
What makes Glendale especially strong for solar is GWP’s 1:1 net metering policy. Every kilowatt-hour of excess solar power you send to the grid earns a credit at the full retail rate — roughly 25 cents. Most of California moved to NEM 3.0, which pays a fraction of retail for exported solar. Glendale homeowners still get full value, which means you can size your system to cover your full annual usage and actually receive credit for everything you produce.
The question isn’t whether solar makes sense in Glendale. It’s making sure you pay a fair price for it — and that’s exactly what comparing quotes is for.
GWP credits your exported solar at the full retail rate. In most of California that’s gone — SCE homeowners get a fraction of retail under NEM 3.0. Glendale homeowners still get full value for every kilowatt-hour produced.
Glendale’s location in the foothills north of Los Angeles delivers strong, consistent sunshine year-round. Your panels will produce reliably in every season, making the savings calculation dependable over the system’s 25+ year life.
GWP rates have risen over the years and will continue to do so. Solar locks in a fixed monthly payment today. Every time GWP raises rates, the gap between what your neighbors pay and what you pay grows wider — in your favor.
With 1:1 net metering, it makes financial sense to size your system to cover your full annual usage. You’re not penalized for producing more than you use in a given hour — it all gets credited at retail.
Enter your average monthly GWP bill for a quick savings estimate. GWP’s 1:1 net metering means your system can be sized to cover your full usage — every kilowatt-hour counts at full retail value.
Solar is a major purchase — typically $20,000+ before incentives, although solar financing allows homeowners to consistently do this with $0 down. The price you pay depends heavily on which installer you choose. Here’s what makes our service worth using:
Your Solar Savings Report shows real pricing from licensed Glendale installers upfront. No teaser rates, no inflated starting points. You look it over and decide whether following up is worth it.
If you already have a quote, tell us the system size, specs, and any details in the notes when you submit your request — we’ll price the same product so you have a real comparison. You don’t need to share what you were quoted, because it wouldn’t change our number. (We challenge you to find another solar rep in SoCal who works that way.)
Submit your request and your Solar Savings Report arrives by email — no phone call to trigger it, no appointment to sit through. We follow up once, but never use drip campaigns. Your information stays with us and goes nowhere else. You move at your own pace.
30% Federal Tax Credit: Most homeowners can still receive benefits from the federal Investment Tax Credit. It’s no longer available directly to homeowners, but we can almost always help you access it through solar financing. For a $22,000 system, that’s over a $6,000 discount. The math for going solar in Glendale is hard to argue with.
Most solar companies want an appointment and a presentation before they’ll give you a number. We skip all of that and lead with our best price.
Fill out the quick form on our homepage — takes about two minutes. We ask for your address and a recent utility bill which is what allows us to build accurate quotes. This is not a rough estimate. We take the time to make it real. No phone call or appointment required.
Your report will have four quotes built around two decisions: solar-only or solar with battery storage, and an ownership program or a PPA (Power Purchase Agreement). This is real pricing from a licensed local installer. We never use an inflated number to negotiate down from.
Take all the time you need — ask questions by email at your own pace. When you’re ready to meet, we customize the system to fit your goals and stay your point of contact through installation and after. Our goal is to make you a referral partner.

“I got solar from Aaron a couple years ago when he worked for a big installation company. He’s great and always answers promptly when I text him. I do kind of wish I had waited though. I see the new process he’s built now and it’s definitely better.”— Joe T.
“This site is innovative for residential solar. It’s simply a better process for us as agents to recommend to our clients.”— Donna S., Real Estate Agent
