What we do in El Cajon
SDG&E and net billing
Electric service in El Cajon is provided by San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E), and California's NEM 3.0 net billing rules apply. That makes the timing of your usage matter, so we compare solar alone with solar plus a battery for your actual bills. See NEM 3.0 and home batteries.
Older homes and heat
Older homes can have smaller or aging panels. We check capacity before quoting and tell you whether an upgrade is needed for solar, a battery or an EV charger. See do I need a panel upgrade?.
Backup power and El Cajon permitting
East County can be affected when utilities shut power off in advance during high-wind, high-fire-risk weather. A Powerwall or Enphase battery keeps you running. Permits are issued by the City of El Cajon (or San Diego County for unincorporated addresses), and we handle the submittal, the SDG&E application and the inspection.
