LADWP vs SCE
In LA County, your utility decides the solar math
Los Angeles County splits between municipal utilities and SCE — and they run on different rules. The CPUC's NEM 3.0 governs SCE homes; LADWP, Pasadena, Glendale, and Burbank each set their own programs.
LADWP — City of Los Angeles
LADWP is the city's municipal utility. It isn't regulated by the CPUC, so NEM 3.0 doesn't apply — LADWP sets its own solar program, interconnection process, and export compensation. We design to LADWP's actual rules, not SCE assumptions.
SCE — most county cities
Long Beach, Torrance, Santa Clarita, and most other LA County cities are Southern California Edison territory under the CPUC's NEM 3.0 Net Billing Tariff — where pairing solar with a battery to cover the 4–9 PM peak is what makes the math work.
Municipal utilities — Pasadena, Glendale, Burbank
Pasadena Water and Power, Glendale Water & Power, and Burbank Water and Power each run their own interconnection programs with their own rules. We manage each city's process end-to-end through Permission to Operate.

Proof you can see
Powering homes across Southern California
Every dot is one real OC Solar project or service call — thousands of them, blanketing Orange County, Los Angeles, the Inland Empire, Ventura County, San Diego, and the desert. Hover any dot for the project type, area, and year — chances are we've already powered a home near you.
across SoCal and beyond
Per our company records as of June 2026 — every project and service call we've taken on, excluding cancellations. Each dot is one real record (a couple dozen without a mappable location count toward the total but aren't shown); positions are approximated to the neighborhood to protect customer privacy.
Permitting by AHJ
Every LA County city permits differently
There is no single LA County permit. In the City of Los Angeles, permits run through LADBS — one of the busiest building departments in California. Every incorporated city, from Long Beach to Santa Clarita, reviews through its own building department, and unincorporated communities go through the County. We prepare, submit, and track every permit through your specific AHJ, with weekly status updates until your system is switched on.
- LADBS plan-check and permitting handled for City of LA homes
- Each city's own building department managed for incorporated cities
- LADWP, SCE, or municipal-utility interconnection through to PTO
- One in-house team across design, permits, install, and inspection
