Design a system for me

Step 1. Education

What are energy efficiency, solar thermal & solar photovoltaics?

Step 2. Gather PG&E Information

Look at a previous bill or log into PG&E's website to find the actual kWh and billing. This will be input to size a solar energy system to your energy consumption and needs

Step 3. Calculate System Cost & Savings

Use the UC Berkeley solar calculator to get an estimate of the cost of going solar, based on your current electricity use. From the "Results", write down roof space (sq.ft) your system requires.

Step 4. See your Roof Potential

Step 5. Contact SmartSolar

The SmartSolar program provides information and technical assistance on energy efficiency and solar installations.
