TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SOLAR POWER
In California, solar energy is being used more frequently as a strategy to reduce energy costs and save the environment. The government provides numerous tax incentives for installing solar panels on your property.
In Garberville, Redway, Fortuna, Eureka, Humboldt, Mendocino, Trinity, & Lake County, Bob Downing Electric can upgrade or install a solar power system for your business, commercial, or industrial site. We have more than 20 years of electrical knowledge, and we can use solar power systems to alter homes.

OUR SOLAR SERVICES INCLUDE:
- Electric Car Chargers Installation
- Photovoltaic System
- Upgrades & Conversions
- Grid tie-ins, solar with battery backup, inverter trouble-shooting
- Installation of panels
- Save money – these solar systems pay for themselves over time
- Less lapse in outages – if power goes off during the day, and have enough solar panels, your panels will give you enough power for amenities. If you have the battery, it’s almost like having a generator
DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION OF SOLAR PANELS
Our staff will examine your property to determine the best places to add solar panels. We work closely with you at every stage to ensure that the solar panels not only meet but also surpass performance requirements and local ordinances.
REPAIR & INSTALLATION OF BATTERY SYSTEMS
To make sure your home is always powered, we may add solar battery solutions. For emergency use, we also have backup battery solutions.
CALIFORNIA'S SOLAR MANDATE: YOUR UPDATE
The California Energy Commission unanimously decided on August 11 to start requiring solar panels and battery storage in new commercial structures and high-rise residential projects on January 1, 2023. The state's Building Standards Commission will now review the suggestion, and it is anticipated that it would be included in a comprehensive reform of the building code in December.
The energy plan also mandates that new homes be connected in a way that makes switching from natural gas to electricity as simple as possible, if not encouraged.
Hotels, offices, clinics and medical facilities, supermarket and convenience stores, restaurants, schools, and public venues including theaters, auditoriums, and convention centers would all be impacted by the idea.
