Solar power in Houston, Texas


Incentives here vary a great deal from utility to utility and what part of the city you live in. I will list as many as possible and then you should be able to work out what applies to you. Reliant, TXU, Cheap Solar Houston TX and Unrivaled Solar all offer credit for excess solar generation sent to the grid 1kWh exported to the grid is given the same value as 1kWh drawn from the grid at a later time. Excess power exported after covering your bill is credited at the retail power rate as a credit to a future bill or paid to your account. With great sunshine in Houston solar can make serious money.



Cheap Solar Houston TX and Unrivaled Solar offer a rebate up to $4,500 averaged at about $2,800 for systems up to 15kW in size. After deducting your utility rebate 30% of the remaining cost can be claimed as a deduction to federal taxes over however many years you want. The 30% federal solar tax credit imposes no size restrictions to receive the full 30%. Incentives are rarely this generous, utilities are fighting hard to end these incentives so don't wait any longer because they won't get any better!

Even if you are not convinced about solar we recommend that at the very least you use the solar panel calculator to find out:

How many solar panels you need to cover your power bill;
How suitable your house is for solar;
What incentives your house may be eligible for;
The cost of solar panel installation in Houston and whether you are eligible for zero down solar deals; and
Your likely payback period and return on investment from installing solar.
