Solar panels & batteries in Santa Clarita, CA
Santa Clarita has some of the hottest summers in the region and is served by SCE. High cooling bills and fire-season outages make solar with battery storage a popular choice.
Energy facts for Santa Clarita homes on SCE
How solar works on Southern California Edison (SCE)
SCE customers who go solar now are on NEM 3.0, the Net Billing Tariff. Power you use yourself saves the full retail rate of about 35¢ per kWh, but power you export earns only about 4–5¢ on average.
That's why most SCE systems today pair panels with a home battery. The battery stores midday sun for the expensive evening hours and keeps essentials running during outages and Public Safety Power Shutoffs. Homes in high fire-threat areas or with qualifying income may be eligible for SGIP battery rebates.

Santa Clarita solar questions
Does NEM 3.0 apply in Santa Clarita?
Yes. Santa Clarita is SCE territory, so new solar customers are on the Net Billing Tariff.
Will solar keep my AC running during an outage?
A battery can run essential circuits for many hours. Whole-home backup with central AC usually needs more storage. We'll size it with you.
Is solar still worth it on SCE under NEM 3.0?
For most homes with bills over about $150 a month, yes, when the system is sized to your usage and paired with a battery.
What is the SCE Base Services Charge?
A fixed monthly charge of about $24 for most SCE customers that solar can't offset. Your solar savings apply to the usage part of the bill.
