Solar power FAQs

  • In 2022, solar panels in Texas typically cost just over $28,000 for an average-sized 7.4kW system – but your total price can vary depending on your solar system’s size, components (such as batteries, shingles, and high-efficiency panels), installation fees, and other factors. However, this is before any incentives or rebates are applied. If you use the federal tax credit and the CPS Energy rebate to bring down the cost of solar panels in San Antonio, you could reduce the upfront price by thousands of dollars.

  • Solar can be a smart investment in San Antonio. The area receives high levels of sunshine (particularly in the summer), which can help you save a significant amount on your monthly bill and possibly receive bill credits from your utility company since your panels may produce more power than you need. Plus, having a solar system increases the resale value of your home if you ever decide to move.

  • There are many reputable solar panel installers in San Antonio, but it pays to do a little homework before choosing one. Make sure to read testimonials, request references, and learn about a company’s history before signing with a particular installer. When you’re ready, you can answer a few questions on SaveOnEnergy with this form or call the number on your screen to be matched with a high-quality installer in San Antonio.

  • Unlike traditional fossil fuels, solar power is renewable and doesn’t emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. By using solar panels to generate your electricity, you’ll lower your household’s carbon footprint and help protect the planet.
