Bend is our home. With over 300 days of sun a year and Central Electric Coop and Pacific Power service across the area, Bend homes are some of the best solar candidates in Oregon. As the Best of Bend winner in 2024 and 2025, we know these neighborhoods, roofs, and permitting offices personally.

Oregon's net metering lets your Bend system bank surplus summer production as credits you draw down in the darker winter months, so a well-sized array can cover nearly all of your annual usage.
