The completed IID Coachella Valley project
OC Solar's completed-project record identifies this as a residential solar-and-battery installation in La Quinta. The verified equipment record lists a 12.04 kW array of 28 Qcells Q.TRON BLK M-G2.H+ 430W modules paired with a Tesla Powerwall 3 (integrated inverter) and one Tesla Powerwall 3 DC expansion unit on Imperial Irrigation District (IID) electric service.
The installation was completed on June 9, 2026, under City of La Quinta permitting and received Imperial Irrigation District Permission to Operate on September 11, 2026. Customer name, street address, account information, financing, savings, and production estimates are intentionally excluded.
Storage-backed solar for eastern Coachella Valley cooling loads
La Quinta sits inside IID's electric service territory rather than SCE's CPUC NEM 3.0 grid. Pairing the 12.04 kW rooftop array with a Powerwall 3 and DC expansion unit gives the household stored solar capacity for afternoon and evening air-conditioning demand as well as configured backup loads during desert grid outages; actual backup duration and bill impact depend on household usage, reserve settings, weather, and IID rate schedule.
