How It Works
This is the typical timeline for a residential solar project – individual projects may vary.
YOU Complete the Solarize Sign-Up Form
5-7 days
Connecting you to an Installer
Homeowners complete the Solarize sign-up form and are connected to our vetted installers. You are welcome to request quotes from any or multiple of our installer partners.
2-3 weeks
Free Assessment & Project Proposal
An installer will provide a free project proposal tailored to your property’s specific needs, based on roof space, electricity usage and other factors. If you’re interested, they can even include a battery storage system or EV charger in your proposal.
5 days
On-site Evaluation
Some installers conduct an evaluation before you sign your contract and some do so afterwards. If the evaluation is done after you sign your contract and it results in any cost increases or identifies the need for solar enabling upgrades, you can terminate your contract with no penalties.
2-5 months
Permitting & Initial Construction
Your installer prepares all permitting and interconnection applications for your project with your local permitting authority and electric utility.
1-3 days
Installation
An installation crew comes to your property and installs your solar array. A residential installation usually takes between 1-3 days.
6 weeks
Final Interconnection
Your electric utility replaces your meter with a bidirectional meter so you can receive credit for your excess production. This step also gives your installer final permission to turn on the system.
