Local expertise
Irvine solar under NEM 3.0.
Irvine’s inland Orange County climate runs hot and dry in summer (frequent 90–95°F days) with mild winters. Master-planned neighborhoods (Woodbridge, Turtle Rock, Quail Hill, Great Park, Portola Springs) mean newer homes, tight HOA architectural rules, and Irvine Company design standards.
- →Designed for SCE + NEM 3.0 Irvine is on Southern California Edison (SCE). Under NEM 3.0 net-billing, export credits are low — so we design solar to self-consume and pair it with a battery for real savings.
- →Battery-ready by default Every Irvine system is engineered for a Tesla Powerwall or Enphase battery so you store midday solar and avoid SCE’s expensive evening peak rates.
- →HOA & tile-roof expertise All-black, low-profile panels and tile-roof flashing that satisfy Irvine’s master-planned HOA architectural standards.
- →Permitting + interconnection City of Irvine Building & Safety (typically 2–4 weeks) plus HOA architectural review for most master-planned communities — HUS prepares both submittals. We also manage the full SCE interconnection application.
