Why Riverside County Homeowners Are Going Solar Now to Reduce Energy Costs
Southern California Edison (SCE) rates have kept climbing even as Riverside County sits on some of the best solar resources in the state, and with summer temperatures often exceeding 100°F, cooling demand can put extra pressure on household energy use. A few numbers explain why solar makes sense here:
- Riverside County averages 277 sunny days a year, well above the national average of 205. 1bestplaces.net, Riverside County, CA climate data
- The county receives about 5.8 peak sun hours of usable sunlight daily, plenty for a residential solar system to offset most of a household’s usage. 2turbinegenerator.org, Riverside solar peak sun hours
- SCE electricity rates run about 45% higher than the national average, which means many homeowners are looking for relief from rising electric bills while also shortening the payback period on a solar investment.3electricitylocal.com, Riverside, CA electricity rates

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit to install solar panels in Riverside County?
Yes. Solar installations require a building permit and SCE interconnection approval. Current Home Solar handles the permitting and utility paperwork for you as part of every installation.
How does NEM 3.0 affect my solar savings in Riverside County?
NEM 3.0 lowered the credit homeowners receive for excess power sent back to the grid compared to the older NEM 2.0 program. Most new systems now include battery storage so you use more of your own solar power directly instead of exporting it at the lower rate.
What solar incentives are available in Riverside County?
The federal solar Investment Tax Credit currently covers 30% of system cost. California also offers a property tax exclusion, so adding solar does not raise your property’s assessed value under current state law.
Will solar panels increase my property taxes in California?
No. California excludes qualifying solar energy systems from property tax reassessment under current law, so your added home value from solar is not taxed the way other home improvements are.
How long does solar installation take in Riverside County?
Timelines vary by home and permitting jurisdiction. After your in-home consultation, our team handles design, permitting, and SCE interconnection, then schedules installation and a final inspection before your system is activated.
Is my roof a good fit for solar in Riverside County?
Most roof types can support solar, but orientation, shading, and roof condition affect system size and output. Our free roof assessment looks at your specific home before we design a system, rather than assuming a one-size-fits-all layout.
Should I get multiple quotes before choosing a solar installer?
It’s reasonable to compare a few quotes and verify any installer’s CA license, local experience, and familiarity with SCE’s interconnection process and NEM 3.0 rules before you sign anything.
Does Current Home Solar also handle roofing?
Yes. A solar system is generally expected to last 25 to 30 years, so it needs a roof that will last as long as the panels. Many Riverside County customers need roof work before installation, and Current Home Solar offers roofing services so your roof is ready to support solar panels for the long term.
