Solar Panels for New Home Construction
SunPower Solutions Through Your Builder Partnership
Why Solar Panels are a Must-Have for New Homebuyers
Adding solar to your new home has never been easier, especially when your builder already partners with SunPower. As the preferred solar provider, we work directly with your builder to install a solar panel system that seamlessly integrates with battery storage options. That could mean lowering your electricity bills, dependable solar energy and a cleaner, more sustainable lifestyle all built into your new home.
From high-performance solar panels to smart energy storage, we use premium technology to help you manage your electricity usage, lower carbon emissions, and enjoy energy savings.
Once you sign your home purchase contract, your builder will send us your information. Then, a SunPower representative will reach out to walk you through your solar finance options and next steps.
Why Choose SunPower for New Home Construction Solar Panels?
When your homebuilder partners with SunPower, going solar is already built into your homebuying experience making it seamless, simple, and stress-free. From installation to activation, we deliver high-performance solar backed by industry-leading expertise and customer care.
Why Solar Adds Value to a New Home
A new home with solar panels can offer long-term savings through lower electricity bills compared to an equivalent home without solar.
Over the life of the system, these savings can often exceed the higher upfront price of a solar-equipped home—making solar a smart investment. Many homebuyers may also benefit from a range of available state and local incentives, rebates, and tax credits that can reduce the overall cost of going solar. To support your decision, tools like the Homeowner’s Guide to Going Solar offer helpful insights on financing options, incentive programs, and more.
Live Better
Use the sun’s renewable power to support your lifestyle, save energy, and help protect the planet. Your system is already designed and installed, so you can enjoy the benefits of solar without lifting a finger. As EnergySage’s guide to solar in new construction highlights, integrating solar during the building phase maximizes savings and convenience for new homeowners.
