Solar Panel Installation Options for Roseville Homeowners
Whether you want to eliminate your utility bill, add battery backup, or simply lock in your energy costs before rates climb again — here’s what a solar project with Under the Sun Electric looks like from start to finish.
Rooftop Solar Panel Installation in Roseville
We design and install grid-tied residential solar systems sized to offset your actual electricity usage — not a cookie-cutter system that leaves panels idle or leaves your bill higher than it should be. Roseville’s 265+ sunny days make rooftop solar one of the highest-return home upgrades available, and we handle the complete installation: racking, wiring, inverter, and utility interconnection. Every system is permitted through the City of Roseville and designed to meet California Title 24 energy code requirements.

Solar + Battery Storage in Roseville
A solar-only system sends excess power back to the grid — a solar-plus-storage system keeps that power in your home for nights, cloudy days, and outages. We pair solar installations with home battery systems including the Tesla Powerwall, giving Roseville homeowners true energy independence. If you’re in a neighborhood with frequent outages or just want to eliminate your reliance on the grid entirely, battery storage is worth the conversation. Learn more about our energy storage systems.
Electrical Panel Upgrades for Solar in Roseville
Many Roseville homes built before 2000 have 100-amp panels that aren’t compatible with a modern solar system — especially if you’re also adding an EV charger or battery. We assess your panel before quoting so there are no surprise upgrade costs after you’ve signed a contract. When a panel upgrade is needed, we handle it ourselves. No subcontractors, no delays, one electrician responsible for the whole job. See our electrical panel upgrade service for more detail.

Solar System Design & Permit Handling in Roseville
The City of Roseville requires building and electrical permits for all solar installations, and the interconnection process with Roseville Electric Utility (REU) has its own timeline and paperwork. We manage the entire permitting and interconnection process in-house — you don’t have to track down forms, call inspectors, or follow up with the utility. We handle it and keep you informed at every step.

Start Your Roseville Solar Project — Free Estimate, No Obligation
We’ll come to your home, walk the roof, review your utility bills, and give you a detailed written estimate — no charge, no pressure. If solar makes sense for your home, we’ll show you exactly what you’ll get, what it costs, and what you’ll save. If it doesn’t make sense, we’ll tell you that too.
Most residential solar installations in Roseville run between $15,000 and $30,000 before incentives, depending on system size, roof complexity, and whether a panel upgrade is needed. The federal solar tax credit (currently 30%) reduces your net cost significantly — a $20,000 system costs closer to $14,000 after the credit. The best way to know your actual number is a free on-site estimate where we review your roof, shade exposure, and utility bills. Call 916-899-3062 or → request yours here.
Yes — the City of Roseville requires both a building permit and an electrical permit for all residential solar installations. You also need to complete an interconnection application with Roseville Electric Utility (REU) before your system can go live. We handle all of this in-house. You don't have to contact the city or REU directly — we manage the entire process and schedule inspections on your behalf.
The physical installation typically takes 1–2 days for a standard residential system. Permitting and REU interconnection add time — plan for 4–8 weeks from signed contract to system activation in most cases. We'll give you a realistic timeline upfront based on current city and utility processing times so you know exactly what to expect.
Most Roseville homes are excellent solar candidates — the city gets 265+ sunny days annually and has some of the best solar irradiance in California. South- and west-facing roofs with minimal shade work best. We'll assess your roof pitch, orientation, shading from trees or neighboring structures, and your actual utility usage during the free estimate to give you an honest answer about whether solar makes financial sense for your specific home.
We serve all of Roseville — including West Roseville, Westpark, Fiddyment Farm, Morgan Creek, Stone Canyon, Sun City, and surrounding areas. We also serve nearby communities including Rocklin, Lincoln, Granite Bay, and Citrus Heights. Call 916-899-3062 or → get in touch to confirm we cover your address.
