Illuminate Solar Company
Solar Power Contractors in Lathrop, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 January 2020
“We used Illuminate Solar to install a decent sized (11.5kW) system. Mark and his team were great, and I would recommend them without hesitation. They were honest, timely, and clean. We bid out to 6 different installers and they were tied for the lowest cost. Unlike Tesla who has set panels they use in set increments (4, 8, or 12 kw systems and only 320w panels), Illuminate worked with us to get exact right size system and panels to maximize our roof area and needs. They also worked to get the installation done quickly to qualify for tax deduction. Highly recommend.”

Everyone involved was great and i would recommend them to anyone looking to get solar.”

Simmitri
Solar Power Contractors in Lathrop, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 January 2020
“Simmitri has differentiated themselves by offering a comprehensive approach towards energy. We had been researching companies for a few months before scheduling a meeting with one of Simmitri's energy consultants. After meeting with him, we knew we didn't need to speak with anyone else. His approach was comprehensive advising us on ways we can decrease our energy footprint by looking at not only solar but sealing the house to loose less of the heating and cooling, evaluation of the duct work to maximize the loose of heating, sealing gaps. He was able to model in real time if we wanted to add a electric vehicle or upgrade our old HVAC system to a electrical heat pump. No other company we met with was even close to this level of care and sophistication. If you want real solutions, Simmitri is the company.”

“From start to finish it was a great experience. I dealt with Tristan and he explained everything to me. The crew came out and were professional in everything they did.

Solar Harmonics, Inc.
Solar Power Contractors in Lathrop, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 March 2020
“Solar Harmonics did an excellent job putting panels on the roof of Clars Auction Gallery in Oakland. They gave us the best quote. After PG&E suggested we first switch to led lightning, which reduced our power needs by 40%, they didn't complain when we reduced the scope by 40% The installation was quick. The salesman, Griff Adams, did good follow up through out the project. They can monitor remotely in case some panels aren't working. I'd highly recommend them.”

Installing solar panels on the roof of your Lathrop, CA home can help you avoid the rising cost of electricity, increase the value of your home, and reduce your carbon footprint. Solar energy is clean and renewable, and government rebates, subsidies and grants encourage homeowners to make the switch. Solar power systems can heat your home, produce electricity and provide hot water so that your home is entirely self sufficient. So whether you want to improve your home’s energy efficiency, save money, or do your bit for the environment, use Houzz to find the best solar power contractor for your needs.

What solar power systems are available?


The two main solar power systems are on-grid and off-grid. On-grid systems – also referred to as grid-tied and utility interactive – are connected to your mains power supply. If your Lathrop, CA home produces more energy than it uses, your meter goes down and you generate credits with your energy provider (check your state government for details on any rebates available). On-grid solar panel systems have lower equipment and installation costs, and will save you money through net metering.

An off-grid solar power system uses battery banks to store the electricity you produce. These battery banks store the sun’s energy so you can use electricity at night or on a cloudy day. This system is designed to keep household electricity running for about two or three cloudy days; longer cloudy periods require a backup generator. Off-grid systems are most suited to households that have no access to the utility grid, and are sometimes a cheaper alternative to extending power lines in remote areas.

Hybrid and portable solar power systems are additional options. A hybrid uses two or more renewable energy sources – usually wind and solar, while portable solar systems are used mostly in farming, fishing and camping, and can be set up when there is no access to mains electricity.

What types of solar panels are available?


There are three main types of solar panels that can can generate electricity for your Lathrop, CA home: monocrystalline, polycrystalline and hybrid. The basic monocrystalline celled panels are fairly efficient and have outstanding performance in cooler conditions, but are marginally more expensive than polycrystalline, which works better in hotter conditions. Hybrid panels use crystalline cells with a thin layer of film, which attracts more energy. This makes hybrid models the most efficient solar panel installation, but also the most expensive. To talk about which solar panels are best for your home and how much energy they produce, contact a Lathrop, CA solar panel company or installer on Houzz.
