What Stockton homeowners need to know.
Stockton primarily operates within PG&E territory, but utility boundaries can be complex as you move toward the city’s outskirts. Since your solar savings and ROI are tied directly to your utility’s specific rates and rules, Continuum verifies your service provider before we start any custom design. Whether you’re in the heart of Stockton or the surrounding areas, we ensure your system is optimized for maximum efficiency.
Sun & production
Stockton delivers an impressive 5.7 peak sun hours per day, giving your solar system strong production throughout the entire year. The sunny Central Valley climate means your panels generate maximum power exactly when local electricity demand and utility rates peak.
Your utility & rates
Stockton homeowners are served by PG&E and subject to California’s NEM 3.0 net billing framework. With average monthly bills ranging from $200 to $280 and peak hour rates hitting $0.45 to $0.55 per kilowatt-hour, the financial case for pairing solar panels with battery storage in Stockton has never been stronger.
Local energy landscape
Under the NEM 3.0 framework, PG&E pays just roughly $0.06 per kilowatt-hour for the solar energy you export, yet they charge between $0.42 and $0.55 per kilowatt-hour to buy that power back. Every Stockton solar installation Continuum designs includes integrated battery storage to keep your clean energy in your home where it is worth seven to nine times more.
Local Knowledge
Continuum has been installing solar and battery systems throughout San Joaquin County for years. We know the local permit requirements, PG&E interconnection timelines, and the specific energy challenges Stockton homeowners face, allowing us to design highly optimized systems around them.
NEM 3.0 applies here: As a PG&E customer, your new solar installation falls under California’s Net Billing Tariff. Because battery storage is the key to maximizing your utility savings, Continuum designs every Stockton system with integrated storage from the ground up.
Local expertise. No shortcuts.
Continuum is not a national company treating Sacramento as a distant market. We are a Northern California solar company, and Sacramento County is right in our backyard. Here is what our local presence means for your installation:
Local advantage 01
PG&E expertise for San Joaquin County
We install throughout PG&E’s Central Valley service area and know exactly what Stockton homeowners need, from local interconnection timelines to the right system size for your specific summer cooling loads. Stockton’s hot summers mean your air conditioning runs hard right when grid electricity is most expensive, and we design every system around that reality.
Local advantage 02
Central Valley system design
Stockton’s climate is ideal for solar, offering over 260 sunny days per year and strong irradiance from April through October. We size every system to offset your peak summer loads instead of just your annual average, ensuring real savings during the months that matter most.
The Continuum difference: We have installed thousands of solar systems across Northern California. We know San Joaquin County’s permit requirements, the PG&E interconnection process, and the specific energy challenges Stockton homeowners face. That local knowledge translates directly into faster installations and better-designed systems.
