How it works
From phone call to off-grid solar systems
Three straightforward steps. No upsells.
Phone call about your power use
We start with a call about what you run, when you run it, and what kind of place it is. A rough list of appliances and how many hours they run is plenty to start.
Site walk and sizing
We visit your property to look at sun exposure, the spot for the panels, and where the batteries and inverter can sit safely. Then we size the system to your actual daily load with a bit of room to grow.
Install and walkthrough
Our crew mounts the panels, sets the battery bank, and wires the system to your pumps and circuits. Before we leave, we walk you through how to read the controller and what to do if something looks off.

Good to know
Off-Grid Solar Systems in Ellicott City, Common Questions
Can an off-grid system keep my well pump running when the grid goes down in Ellicott City?
Yes, that's one of the most common reasons people call us. We size the battery bank and panels around the pump's startup load so water keeps flowing through an outage.
My home here is all-electric or gas-heated, so will solar really cover what I need?
It depends on the heat source and how much you run it, which is why we start with your real usage rather than a generic package. Around here, many homes split between electric and gas heating, and we plan the system to match whichever applies to you.
What happens during an off-grid solar systems visit in Ellicott City?
We come out to your property and look at where the sun hits, where the panels could go, and where the batteries and inverter would fit safely. We also go over the appliances and pumps you want to run. That gives us what we need to size the system properly. You'll leave knowing what we'd recommend and why.
How long does it take to get scheduled and how much does a system cost?
We usually can get you on the calendar within the same week, depending on the season and how busy we are. Pricing depends on how much power you need, how many batteries you want, and how far the site is from the road. Call us and we'll talk through what's likely for your situation. We won't give you a number over the phone without knowing the details.
