Cut your electric bill to $0 and keep your home powered through grid outages. Expert solar and battery installation across Southeastern Pennsylvania.

Rooftop Solar Panel Installation by Pennstar Solar in Southeastern Pennsylvania

Rooftop Solar Panel Installation

Eliminate your PECO electric bill with a custom-designed rooftop solar system. A typical 10 kW residential system saves $2,500-$3,500+ per year on electricity, plus earns additional PA SREC income. With PECO's 1:1 net metering, every kilowatt-hour you export to the grid is credited at the full retail rate. Systems typically pay for themselves in 8-10 years, then deliver 15-20+ more years of free electricity. We use premium, all-black Tier 1 panels with 25-year warranties for a sleek look that maximizes energy output.

  • Offset 80-100% of your PECO electric bill
  • Earn PA SREC income ($250-$350+/yr for a 10 kW system)
  • Custom design for your roof — structural analysis included
  • All-black Tier 1 panels with 25-year warranty
  • Full permitting & PECO interconnection handled
  • 100% financing available with $0 down
Ground Mount Solar Systems by Pennstar Solar in Southeastern Pennsylvania

Ground Mount Solar Systems

Maximize energy production with a ground-mounted solar array that can be precisely oriented and tilted for optimal sun exposure. We install Sinclair ground mount racking systems, known for their durability and engineering quality. Ground mounts often produce 10-15% more energy than roof-mounted systems. Ideal for Southeastern PA properties with large yards, farms, or commercial lots where roof space is limited or heavily shaded. The higher production translates directly to higher savings and faster payback.

  • 10-15% more production than typical roof mounts
  • Optimal tilt and orientation for maximum ROI
  • Scalable design for larger energy needs
  • No roof penetrations or structural concerns
  • Ideal for properties with shading or limited roof space
  • Trenching, conduit, and all electrical work included

Battery Storage & Whole-Home Backup

Grid outages across Southeastern PA are becoming more frequent and lasting longer. Battery storage provides automatic, instant backup power that keeps your entire home running when the grid fails — lights, HVAC, refrigerator, internet, medical equipment, and more. Unlike a gas generator, your solar panels recharge your batteries every day, providing potentially unlimited backup duration. Batteries also enable time-of-use arbitrage: store cheap solar energy during the day and use it during expensive peak rate hours for maximum savings.

  • Whole-home or critical-load backup configurations
  • Automatic, instant switchover — no interruption
  • Solar-recharged daily for unlimited backup potential
  • Time-of-use arbitrage maximizes electricity savings
  • Silent, clean, maintenance-free operation
  • Brands: Tesla Powerwall, Enphase, Sol-Ark, EG4, Sigenergy, FranklinWH, Fortress
Commercial & Industrial Solar by Pennstar Solar in Southeastern Pennsylvania

Commercial & Industrial Solar

Lower your operating costs and boost your Net Operating Income (NOI) with commercial solar. By locking in predictable, near-zero energy costs, you directly increase your property's bottom line and valuation. Businesses with high daytime electricity usage see the fastest payback. Commercial systems qualify for accelerated depreciation (MACRS) and federal tax incentives that dramatically improve ROI. Battery storage adds resilience for businesses that can't afford downtime during grid outages.

  • Lower operating costs to increase NOI and property value
  • Accelerated depreciation (MACRS) for tax advantages
  • Predictable energy pricing protects against PECO rate hikes
  • Battery backup prevents costly business downtime
  • Scalable designs for rooftop, carport, or ground mount
  • Perpetual tax-free cash flows after payback
EV Charger & Electrical Panel Upgrades by Pennstar Solar in Southeastern Pennsylvania

EV Charger & Electrical Panel Upgrades

Prepare your home for the electrified future. Level 2 EV charger installation lets you fuel your car with free solar energy instead of expensive gasoline. Panel upgrades (200A or 400A) ensure your home can handle the increased electrical load from solar, batteries, and EV chargers. Often bundled with your solar project for maximum savings.

  • Level 2 EV charger installation — fuel your car with solar
  • Bi-directional V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) — use your EV as a home battery during outages
  • 200A and 400A electrical panel upgrades
  • Smart load management systems
  • All local permitting & inspections handled
  • Bundled pricing with solar installation for savings
  • Future-proof your home's electrical infrastructure
New for 2026

V2X Bidirectional EV Charging

Your electric vehicle's battery is 5–7x larger than a home Powerwall. With bidirectional charging (V2X), it becomes a massive backup power source for your home. Charge your EV from solar during the day, then discharge it to power your house overnight or during a grid outage. The Sigenergy V2X DC Bidirectional Charger handles everything automatically — it's the most capable residential V2X solution available today.

  • Turn your EV into a whole-home backup — 60-100 kWh of stored energy
  • DC-coupled design for maximum round-trip efficiency
  • Automatic switchover powers your home when the grid goes down
  • Charge from solar, discharge at night — eliminate peak-rate electricity costs
  • Works with compatible Ford, Mercedes-Benz, Tesla, Rivian EVs & more
  • Pairs seamlessly with Sigenergy battery storage for layered resilience

2

EV powers your home

At night or during an outage, your EV discharges stored energy back to your home.

3

Smart management

The Sigenergy system automatically decides when to charge, discharge, or export to grid.
