Frequently Asked Questions About Solar in San Jose
Who is the local utility in San Jose and how does net billing work?
San Jose is in Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) territory. California's NEM 3.0 net billing applies: exported energy is credited at hourly avoided-cost rates that vary by time-of-day and season. We model export values and TOU impacts for your specific usage profile.
How does permitting and interconnection work in San Jose?
Permitting in San Jose is handled by the City of San Jose Building Department (or the local authority having jurisdiction). Interconnection is submitted to Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E). Typical timelines for permit + interconnection range from 2–6 weeks, but can vary with workload and HOA approvals.
What incentives apply to San Jose solar projects?
Most San Jose projects qualify for the 30% federal investment tax credit (ITC). California's property tax exclusion for active solar energy systems generally applies to eligible installations. Local utility incentives and export credits vary by program; we confirm all current options during your proposal.
How do San Jose's climate conditions affect performance and maintenance?
San Jose has a generally moderate inland climate. Production is strong most of the year, though summer heat can slightly reduce efficiency. We recommend semiannual cleanings and continuous monitoring.

In San Jose, annual bill reduction typically ranges from about $1,500–$2,800 depending on system size, usage patterns, TOU rates, and weather. Actual results vary; your proposal includes a site-specific model.
