Redwood City Electricity Rates

If you call Redwood City home, you’re likely feeling the pinch of California’s steep energy prices. On average, California households spend about $362 per month on electricity, totaling $4,344 annually. That’s an astounding 55% more than what most Americans pay. 

Why the steep costs? California’s electricity rates average 36 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh), which is considerably higher than the national average of 23 cents per kWh. To put this in perspective, over the next 25 years, the typical Redwood City homeowner could be looking at a total electricity cost of around $235,100–and that’s assuming rates don’t continue to rise.

Looking at those numbers, solar just makes sense. When you invest in a solar system, you can dramatically or even eliminate your monthly electric bill. Most solar adopters see their investment pay for itself in five years. After that, you’re looking at decades of low or no energy bills. 

Ready to brighten your financial future? Switch to solar and enjoy lower bills now while protecting yourself from future rate hikes.

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 Should I Go Solar?

Cut Your Energy Bills

Solar power can significantly reduce or eliminate your monthly electricity costs. Watch your energy expenses shrink while your savings grow year after year.

Benefits from Incentives

Take advantage of the 30% federal tax credit, net metering, and PACE financing. These programs make going solar more affordable and accelerate your return on investment.

Ensure Reliable Power

Don’t let grid outages leave you in the dark. With solar panels and battery storage, your home can stay powered even when the utility grid fails. Enjoy energy independence and peace of mind.

Increase Home Value

Solar installations can increase your property’s appeal and value. Many buyers are willing to pay more for homes with solar systems, potentially boosting your home’s resale price.

Get 24/7 Power with a Battery

 Supercharge your solar setup with a backup battery. As more and more homeowners embrace solar, batteries are quickly becoming a must-have addition. By pairing a battery with your solar panels, you unlock the full potential of clean energy, powering your home around the clock, regardless of weather conditions. When you add a battery to your system, you’ll gain true energy independence so you can stay up and running even when the grid goes dark.

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.
