Family Powers Home and Car with 100% Solar Energy

Lisa & Steve

Meet Lisa and Steve, a family who decided to take control of their energy future. Already intrigued by the financial and environmental benefits of solar energy, they found themselves increasingly frustrated with rising utility rates and their dependence on PG&E. Determined to find a solution, Lisa and Steve opted to install solar panels in their home.

Problem

Lisa and Steve were frustrated with rising utility rates and increased electricity bills due to charging their electric vehicle (EV). They felt a lack of control over their energy costs and sought a solution to reduce their reliance on traditional energy sources.

Solution

The family opted to install solar panels on their home to generate their own electricity. This move not only shielded them from fluctuating utility rates but also allowed them to power both their home and car with clean, renewable energy. Charging the car during off-peak hours further maximized their savings.
