Why choose residential or commercial solar energy?

Solar power isn’t a futuristic dream anymore — it’s an attainable reality for home and business owners in the South like you. Thanks to advancements in technology and clean energy incentives, commercial and residential solar panels are more affordable and accessible than ever before to property owners in Tyler, TX. Here are some of the benefits.

Slash your electricity bills

Residential solar panels can pay for themselves in as few as six to eight years, leading to significant savings over their 25+ year lifespan. Some homeowners have even been able to reduce their electric bills by as much as 95%, although results may vary based on system size, roof orientation, energy usage, and local utility rates.

Power your home or business cleanly

Solar energy is a renewable resource that doesn’t pollute the air. By switching to solar panels, you’ll be reducing greenhouse gases and CO2 emissions, leaving a cleaner environment for future generations.

Boost your property's value

Solar panels in Texas are a home improvement that can make your property even more attractive to potential buyers and increase your Texas home’s resale value.

Solar energy rebates and incentives

Solar power offers significant savings beyond reducing your electricity bill. Many states and the federal government provide rebates and tax credits to further incentivize the switch to clean energy, reducing the upfront cost of installing a solar panel system and making solar more accessible overall. Here’s how to find out what you qualify for:

Texas Residents

Texas residents and business owners have access to a variety of attractive incentives, including property tax exemptions and utility-specific rebates. Visit Go Solar Texas for a comprehensive breakdown of available rebates, tax credits, and more.

Non-Texas Residents

Even if you’re not in Texas, you can still benefit from solar incentives! Many states offer rebates, tax credits, or net metering programs to encourage solar adoption. Contact your local energy provider or visit your state’s government website to learn more about the programs available in your area.

Federal Tax Credits

There was previously a federal solar investment tax credit (ITC), but it expired on December 31, 2025. Learn more about possible federal eligibility requirements on the Department of Energy’s solar resources page.

I had Stonewater Roofing put a new roof on a house I was selling. I needed quick work so I could close the deal, and they made it happen. I worked with Shay Burton and he was always prompt and did a good job explaining the process. I was very happy with the results and I highly recommend Stonewater.

FAQs About Solar Energy and Panel Installation

What is the process for going solar?

Schedule a free energy assessment and one of our senior associates will come out and take a look.

How long will solar panel installation take?

Solar panel installation timelines depend on the size of the system. Normally, solar power installation takes one day. A very large solar energy system can take up to two days or more.

What are the financial benefits of solar energy?

When you install a solar energy system on your property, you save money on your electricity bills and protect yourself against rising electricity rates in the future. How much you can save depends on the utility rates and solar policies in your area of East Texas, but going solar is a smart investment regardless of where you live.

What if I move?

Purchased solar panel systems can be relocated to your new home or you can include the system into your home value. If you used a leasing company, you can pay off the system or you can transfer it to the new homeowner. If you elect to pay off the system, you can include this price in your listing price.

Can I store excess energy?

Yes, however, where the energy is stored is dependent upon whether you choose to install a solar storage battery with your system. If your installation does include a storage battery, your excess energy will be sent there. If your system does not include a battery, excess solar energy produced will be sent to the utility grid until sundown.
