Understanding
Solar in Nevada.

The Money Part

Your power bill breaks down into two main costs: what you pay for electricity and how much you use. NV Energy charges more during peak hours (1pm to 7pm in summer) when everyone's AC is running full blast. This is exactly when solar panels are most productive.

The sun hits your panels hardest during expensive rate periods. Your meter runs backward, banking credits for nighttime. Over the month this levels out your costs, especially during brutal summer bills.

Most Vegas homes use around 1,100 kWh per month. At peak rates that's nearly $300 just for electricity. Solar lets you dodge these high rates when they hurt most.

The Technical Part

Solar panels last 25+ years but they're not all built equal. Cheap panels lose about 1% power each year. Quality American panels hold steady for decades. The math matters - that tiny efficiency difference adds up to thousands over time.

Your roof angle and direction affect production. South-facing is ideal but east/west still work well in Vegas. Our installers map your roof's solar access through all seasons. We account for shadows, obstacles, and seasonal sun paths.

Inverters convert DC power from panels into AC power your home can use.

Each has pros and cons for different home setups. We'll walk you through what makes sense for your situation.
