Yes! A SunLogic solar power system, with incentives, will produce electricity at approximately $0.12-$0.17 per kilowatt-hour. This compares to PG&E’s rates that start at $0.11 per kilowatt-hour and quickly climb to $0.44 per kilowatt-hour. Solar also locks in these low rates, so as energy prices rise your savings will continue to grow. PG&E’s electricity rates are expected to double in less than 10 years.
