Best solar installers for LADWP customers in LA with minimal power outages?

サービス 1週間前 4 answers • Kelsey P

I own a cafe in LA and deal with suppliers, staff, and paperwork every week. I'm looking for reliable solar installers that cater to LADWP customers with minimal power outages, specifically considering our street's occasional outages twice a year. I've found most online solar advice focuses on SCE, so I'm unsure if the information applies to LADWP's net metering.

In LADWP territory, the payback period for solar is faster than for solar with a battery, mainly due to the retail rate for excess generation. If you don't have medical equipment or a job that requires you to work from home, you can probably skip the battery, given the low number of outages per year. Solar panels alone will likely provide a quicker return on investment.

We opted for a battery during our recent solar installation, mainly to ensure backup power during outages. However, considering the LADWP's rules and the impact of NEM 3.0, it might not be the most cost-effective choice. It's worth looking into financing options from installers, such as Concert/Propel, which can reduce the system cost by around 30%, although you'll lose the direct tax credits.

We installed solar in late July in LADWP territory, where we have two electric cars, central air conditioning, and two young children. Outages are relatively rare, occurring about once a year. We chose to maximize the number of panels on our roof, as we discovered that LADWP doesn't limit the number of panels based on our electricity bill. We decided against a battery, as we believe NEM will be sufficient for our needs.

Unless you live in an area with frequent power outages, the cost of a battery might not be justified. Solar panels and installation costs are based on making you self-sufficient, and the battery is an additional expense that may not be necessary.
