The Solar Difference

Look forward to lower electric bill for years to come.

Solar savings begin on day one and continue to grow over time. For starters, federal, state and local solar incentives can help you cut the cost of your residential solar system in half. Then, as soon as your solar power system is installed and the solar power you generate offsets your electricity needs, you’ll see your utility bills drop drastically and stay low for years to come.

Among the many benefits of owning a SunPower residential solar system, the fact that it offers the greatest utility bill savings may be the most important. SunPower solar panels use more sun than conventional solar panels, which means they generate more electricity per panel, and they use less roof space to produce the energy you need. Because SunPower solar panels produce up to 50% more power than other panels, you can generate more solar energy from your roof and reduce the amount of electricity you purchase from the utility. With SunPower, you can enjoy the greatest savings on your utility bill over the lifetime of your solar energy system. 

Form meets function. SunPower Signature black solar panels generate the greatest amount of solar electricity per solar cell in an elegant panel format. With our SunPower® Maxeon™ solar cell technology, they eliminated metal gridlines, put wide and thick metal contacts on the back of the solar cell, out of sight, and placed the solar cells onto a black panel background. So not only do SunPower Signature black solar panels capture more sunlight, our elegant engineering creates a streamlined design that blends harmoniously into the roof of your home. This refined design allows our residential solar systems to integrate with a wide range of environments and architectural styles.

Solar power from SunPower is one of the wisest investments you can make today. According to Businessweek, homeowners can expect a return on their solar power investment of 15% or more per year. Research has also shown that homes with solar panels on the roof sell twice as quickly. Homes with solar power attracted higher offers from buyers who wanted to save money on utility bills and reduce their impact on the environment. The increased home sale price was comparable to the average cost of system installation, and solar homeowners also enjoyed the benefit of dramatically lower electric bills.

When it comes to tracking the performance of your home solar power system and staying on top of your family’s electricity usage, the SunPower® Monitoring System puts you in complete control. SunPower provides you with the tools you need to monitor the power your solar panels generate. And with the optional Consumption Monitoring Kit, you can also track your electricity usage, enabling you to save on energy expenses and make smart decisions for your home and family. You can watch your solar power system in action and track how the clean solar energy you’ve produced benefits the environment. View your energy information anytime, anywhere, with convenient access options.
