Whole-Home Solar

A system designed around your home β€” not a one-size template

Hawai'i has some of the highest electricity rates in the country, which is exactly why a properly sized solar system is one of the smartest investments a homeowner can make here. But "properly sized" matters: too small and you're still paying HECO or MECO every month; too big and you've spent money on power you give away.

We start by looking at your actual usage and your roof, then design a system that covers your needs today and leaves room for what's coming β€” AC, an EV, a growing ohana. You get clear numbers, honest options, and no pressure.

  • Free roof evaluation & custom system design
  • Premium panels & Tesla Powerwall battery options
  • We handle permits, HECO/MECO approval & inspections

Battery + Backup

Add a Tesla Powerwall and keep every kilowatt

Under Hawai'i's current rules, the credit you get for sending solar back to the grid is small β€” so the smart move is to store your daytime power and use it yourself at night. That's what a battery does.

BYOD Plus: Battery owners can earn incentives of up to $4,000 per battery for supporting the grid β€” on top of federal and state tax credits.
  • Power your home at night on solar you already made

Questions

Solar installation FAQ

How much does solar cost in Hawai'i?

It depends on your roof and electric bill, but with $0-down financing plus federal and state tax credits, your monthly solar payment is often less than the HECO/MECO bill it replaces. We give you exact numbers in your free quote β€” no guessing.

Do I need a battery?

In 2026, most new Hawai'i solar includes one. Because export credits are low, storing your power in a Tesla Powerwall and using it at night is far more valuable than selling it back. Batteries also provide backup during outages and can earn BYOD Plus incentives.

How long does the whole process take?

The physical install is usually 1–3 days. Including design, permitting, and utility approval, the full timeline is typically a few weeks. We manage every step for you.

What about tax credits?

There's a 30% federal solar tax credit plus Hawai'i's state credit. We'll walk you through what you qualify for, though we always recommend confirming specifics with your tax professional.

Do you service what you install?

Yes. We're local β€” monitoring, service, and repairs come from the same team that installed your system. We also service systems other companies installed.
