Go Solar In Tacoma
Installing solar panels on your Tacoma home could be one of the best choices you make
Tacoma is a great place to go solar, and homeowners in the City of Destiny are waking up to that fact more and more as the cost of solar materials continues to decline and incentives in Washington state remain attractive — at least, for now.
You might be surprised to learn that Tacoma gets more hours of sun than other cities like Toronto or Pittsburgh. Tacoma gets an average of 2,167 sun hours per year, which is plenty of sunshine to power solar for your Tacoma home or business, while federal incentives available through Dec. 31, 2025, make now a good time to switch to solar.
Utilities Served
Solora Solar partners with the following electric utility companies in the Tacoma area for customers interested in reducing their monthly power bill and potentially selling electric power back to the grid through net metering.
- Tacoma Power (Tacoma Public Utilities): Tacoma, University Place, Fircrest, Fife, and parts of Lakewood
- Puget Sound Energy (PSE): Broader Puget Sound region; limited overlap with Tacoma
- Elmhurst Mutual Power & Light Co.: Parts of Parkland and Spanaway in unincorporated Pierce County (Elmhurst area)
Your grid-tied system can incorporate a battery backup, if desired. If you want to go off the grid, off-grid options with battery storage are available as well.
