The math is simple: lower installation costs plus rising electricity rates equals bigger savings when you go solar. At Citadel Roofing and Solar, we’re here to guide you through this bright opportunity. Our team designs custom solar systems that do more than just shrink your power bills–they give you energy independence and help create a cleaner Auburn.

The Reality of Electricity Rates in Auburn

As an Auburn resident, you’re likely feeling the strain of California’s high energy costs. The average California household pays about $386 monthly for electricity, adding up to a startling $4,632 annually. That’s 58% above the national average of $2,930 per year.

What’s behind these hefty bills? California’s electricity rates hover around 38 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh), significantly above the national average of 23 cents. To put this into perspective, over the next quarter-century, a typical Auburn homeowner could be facing a total electricity cost of approximately $250,300, assuming rates remain stable, which past trends suggest is unlikely.

With figures like these, solar isn’t just an option–it’s a financial lifeline. Investing in a solar system can significantly reduce or even eliminate your monthly electric expenses. Most homeowners who have made the switch see their investment pay for itself in five years. After that, you’ll have decades of minimal or zero energy costs.

Power Outages in California

California residents are no strangers to power outages, with recent years showing a troubling trend. Over the past five years, California has experienced significant disruptions to its power grid, affecting millions of customers and lasting for extended periods. 

On average, the state faces about 44 power outages each year, impacting around 1.48 million customers and resulting in nearly 16 days of total outage time.

These numbers highlight why energy independence is becoming increasingly important for California homeowners. Solar power systems with battery storage can provide crucial backup during outages, offering both protection against grid failures and savings on high electricity costs.

Why Auburn Homeowners are Embracing Solar

Energy Savings

When you go solar, you can reduce or even eliminate your monthly energy bills. Say goodbye to high electric bills and hello to savings.

Solar Incentives

Maximize your savings with cost-cutting programs. Solar adopters can claim the 30% federal tax credit, earn net metering rewards, and explore PACE financing. These incentives make your switch to clean energy more affordable than ever.

Energy Independence

Don’t let blackouts disrupt your life. With solar panels and battery storage, your home stays running even when the grid goes out. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes with a reliable power supply, come rain or shine.

Home Value

Solar panels aren’t just about clean energy – they’re a smart home upgrade. Many buyers are eager to pay extra for solar-equipped homes. When it’s time to sell, your solar investment could translate into a higher selling price.

Unlock 24/7 Energy with Battery Storage

Maximize your solar investment by adding a battery system. This innovative add-on is quickly becoming a must-have for everyone going solar. Batteries work with your panels so you can store energy and use it whenever you need it–rain or shine, day or night. Plus, with a battery, you can keep your power on even during blackouts. With a battery, you’ll be able to save more money and be in control of your power.

Understanding Solar Batteries

Throughout the day, solar panels harness the sun’s energy and convert it into electricity. When your panels generate more power than your home needs, the extra energy can be stored in your solar battery to be used later. With a solar battery, you can tap into your stored energy when your panels aren’t producing power, like at night or when it’s cloudy. You can also use your battery during peak utility hours when electricity prices are at their highest to maximize savings.

Top Solar Battery Options

When it comes to solar batteries, you have options. Our top recommendations are the Tesla Powerwall 3, the FranklinWH Battery or the Enphase IQ. These batteries stand out for their performance and reliability. These batteries are all great options and deciding which one to pair with your solar system depends on your energy needs. 

When comparing these batteries, it’s important to understand two key specifications:

Energy Availability: This refers to the amount of power the battery can consistently provide, measured in kilowatts (kW). A battery with enough energy availability will be able to keep most homes (and all of their appliances) running as usual, even during an outage. 

Energy Storage: This is the total amount of energy the battery can store, measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh). A battery with a larger capacity allows homes to stay powered for longer than a battery with a smaller capacity. 

All of these battery options are designed to provide sufficient continuous power and energy storage to keep most homes running efficiently even when the grid goes out or during periods of reduced solar production.

Opting for a high-quality battery like one of these will help you decrease your dependence on the grid, save money and make sure you have reliable backup power ready when you need it.
