Incentives applied
| Incentive | Value | Who claims | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|
| California Net Billing Tariff (exports credited at avoided-cost rates) Exports earn avoided-cost credits far below retail, so a battery that stores midday solar for the evening is worth more than exporting. The quote values exports with the utility's export rate table. | — | utility bill | source, verified 2026-11-06 |

System
9 kW DC, 17.5 kW AC inverter capacity, 2 × 13.5 kWh battery.
Makes about 14,400 kWh a year: 14,140 used at home, 260 exported at the net-billing rate.
⚠ The 200 A panel allows 40 A of backfeed and this system needs 91.1 A (NEC 705.12, battery inverter counted). Priced options:
- derate the main breaker to 145 A if the home's load calculation allows
- a supply-side (line-side) connection, where the utility and inspector allow it
- a main panel upgrade (busbar 225 A or more)
Monitoring: a SunLoop gateway reads the inverter and the grid, and this quote's production becomes the promise your installer is measured against.
