FAQs
For those seeking to own residential solar panel systems, the 30% Residential Clean Energy federal solar tax credit helps reduce the large upfront investment. This federal tax credit will begin to decrease in 2033.
While savings are available in the form of credits on federal taxes, these benefits are only available to those who choose solar panel system ownership. For many homeowners, an outright solar investment is not financially feasible. The Sunrun Solar Subscription solves for this by still providing customers with long term savings without the initial expenses and personal responsibility of home solar system ownership.
Sunrun stands out among solar companies in Bakersfield, CA by providing reliable solar installation and maintenance homeowners can trust. Unlike many solar companies out there, Sunrun is here to stay. As the pioneer of the solar subscription, we boast the longest track record in the industry and support over 1 million customers. Backed by our position as the largest residential solar and storage provider in the U.S., Sunrun combines national reach with a local touch. While we are a national solar company, in Bakersfield we have local teams who are expert battery and solar installers. At the national level we are able to provide 24/7 system monitoring for all Sunrun Solar Subscription customers and if you need to sell your home, we easily transfer systems to new buyers to start them on their own solar energy journeys. With Sunrun you’ll experience an unmatched combination of expertise, customer service, and product warranty and performance guarantees.
In Bakersfield, the cost of solar installation itself can be as little as $0 down for qualifying homeowners. Just like you don’t pay a utility company to install power lines, with the Sunrun Solar Subscription, Sunrun solar installers set up your home solar system at little to no upfront cost. You then pay a fixed monthly rate for the energy your panels produce over 25 years—replacing part of your utility bill.
If you choose to purchase your home solar system, solar costs will depend on various factors, including the number of panels being installed, what additional equipment you select–such as a backup battery, and any applicable incentives you may be eligible for and can utilize. You can view more about the average cost breakdown of solar installation on our Sunrun blog post. The best way to understand solar costs is to meet with one of our local Bakersfield solar energy consultants. A Sunrun representative will assess your home and energy usage and provide you with a customized quote.
Solar and battery storage just makes sense for Bakersfield homeowners. You get abundant, reliable energy generated by the solar panels on your roof, empowering you to control your energy costs. No matter which financial plan you choose, going solar means predictable bills for years to come, freeing you from the stress of unpredictable rate hikes. Plus, installing solar panels and battery storage gives you reliable independence from the grid. During brownouts or blackouts, you can keep your lights on, thanks to your backup battery, which allows your solar panel system to continue providing power. But the benefits don't stop there. Battery storage lets you use your extra solar energy whenever you want, avoiding those peak-rate charges and keeping your utility bills down.
