What we need to quote your project

Wondering whether renewables are right for you? Get a free solar and energy storage quote.

What we need

You will need to provide information about your energy usage and the property where the system will be installed. Your energy usage determines the solar system size you need to generate the electricity your home, business or institution uses, including the amount of electricity used by appliances like refrigerators and air conditioners. We also calculate future usage plans such as electric vehicles, number of people using the electricity and what time of day they will use it.

The best way to share this information is to send us a copy of a complete, recent utility bill. If the property is in Northern California, here are instructions on how to get a copy of your PG&E bill. Otherwise, your utility will have information on locating a recent bill.

The property address allows us to calculate the size and condition of your roof and how much sun it receives. It also determines the processes for permitting and inspections by your city and utility.

If you plan to repair or replace your roof (reroof) in the near future, now is an excellent time to contact us about a solar or energy storage quote. Occidental Power will work with your roofer to install brackets during their process.

Please let us know about any other questions you may have about your energy needs or system requirements or preferences. If there are other factors needed to complete the quote, we may send someone to assess the site in person.

What you get

Once you provide the information, we generate a quote for your project that is specific to your needs. We include a proposal for:

  • system details like the optimal size of the system, its power output, and estimated energy production.

  • recommended top quality equipment, panels, inverters, and batteries, along with specifications and warranties.

  • the total job cost, as well as Net Cost, which reflects the cost after tax credits or incentives.

  • an estimated savings analysis

Our experienced designers and installers customize every solar and energy storage system for your specific energy needs, preferences, and objectives, accounting for the conditions of your property. We work with you along the way to answer your questions and afterward to maintain your system. To get started on your quote, contact us here.
