Round Rock is a great place to go solar. On average, the city sees about 228 sunny days, and 85% of rooftops in Austin are equipped to accommodate solar panels. 

Contact us to see what rebates and incentives your local utility company offers.

The cost of an installation takes several variables into account, including your location and personal energy use, the size of your system, and energy costs in your area. That's not including all the helpful tax credits and local rebates we cover below. 

That average cost covers every facet of an installation, including:

Solar panels

Mounting equipment

Inverters

Conduit and other components

Installation labor

Project management, including HOA approvals, permitting, and inspections

25 year warranty covering system maintenance and repairs

The federal government offers a solar investment tax credit (ITC) to subsidize the purchase and installation costs of residential and commercial solar panel systems. 

The ITC allows you to save 30% on the total cost of your solar project if installed before 2032, and decreases to 26% in 2033.

Unfortunately, Texas does not offer a state-wide tax credit for solar projects.

Selling electricity back to the grid is called net metering and is available through your Retail Electric Provider (REP). However, there are various electricity markets across the state of Texas. 

Austin Energy, for example, offers a Value of Solar (VoS) rate tariff. They calculate your solar credit by taking your total energy generation hours in kWh, then multiplying it by your applicable VoS rate (for residential and commercial customers, it’s $0.97 per kWh)
