About this example

This example is the quote a residential solar installer in Arizona sends after a site visit. It proposes 24 panels on the south and west planes of a tile roof, microinverters, one 13.5 kWh home battery with a backup gateway, a main panel upgrade, permits and installation, for a homeowner whose air conditioning drives high summer bills.

Solar buyers compare several quotes, so this one is written to be compared. It is sized from twelve months of the customer's bills, shows the roof layout and the shade on each plane, gives the production month by month against the household's own use, and states every assumption behind the savings estimate. The equipment pages give the panel, inverter and battery specifications, the price is itemized in four sections, and three options show the cost of more or less storage. It is honest about incentives in 2026: the federal homeowner tax credit has ended, so the quote does not count on it. A payment schedule, a timeline to switch-on, warranties, common questions and terms complete it.

Who it is for

Residential solar and battery installers who want quotes that homeowners can compare line by line, and that survive a second opinion.
