Solar Panel Installation in San Diego

Custom-engineered rooftop, ground-mount, and carport solar from a licensed C-10 contractor with 20+ years of experience — designed to cut your SDG&E bill and pay for itself in about five years.

Overview

Solar Built Around Your Home, Not a Template

Southern California gets some of the best sunshine in the country — and some of the highest electricity rates. Rooftop solar turns that sunshine into decades of lower bills, and Sky Source Electric has been installing it across San Diego County for more than 20 years. We’re a solar company and a licensed C-10 electrical contractor, so every panel, conduit run, and interconnection is handled by our own trained team, not a rotating cast of subcontractors.

Every installation starts with a real look at your roof, your shading, and your past 12 months of usage. From there we design a system sized to offset as much of your bill as makes financial sense, walk you through the numbers, and handle the permits and utility paperwork from start to finish. Ask about our no-out-of-pocket options and financing through Mypoint Credit Union and Wellhouse Credit Union.

FAQ

Solar Panel Installation Questions

How much does a solar system cost in San Diego?

It depends on your energy usage, roof, and whether you add battery storage. We give you a free, itemized estimate with financing options — including no-out-of-pocket plans — so you see the numbers before committing.

How long does installation take?

Most residential installs take one to three days on the roof. The full timeline, including design, permitting, and utility approval, is usually a few weeks — and we manage all the paperwork.

Composition shingle, clay and concrete tile, metal, and flat roofs — plus ground-mount and carport options when a roof isn’t ideal.
