What Folsom homeowners need to know.
Folsom is served by PG&E, placing all new solar installations under California’s NEM 3.0 Net Billing Tariff. Battery storage is the key to maximizing savings under the current rate structure.
Sun & production
Folsom’s location near Folsom Lake and the lower Sierra foothills places portions of the city and surrounding areas in PG&E’s High Fire Threat District.
Your utility & rates
Many Folsom neighborhoods have experienced PG&E Public Safety Power Shutoffs in recent years. Battery storage provides automatic backup power that keeps your home running regardless of grid conditions.
Local energy landscape
Premium Folsom neighborhoods such as Empire Ranch, the Oak Avenue Corridor, and various lakeside communities offer excellent solar suitability. Their south and west-facing roofs are perfectly positioned to generate exceptionally high annual energy yields.
Local expertise. No shortcuts.
Continuum isn’t a national corporation viewing Folsom as just another remote market. We’re a local solar company based in Northern California, with deep roots in the Sacramento and El Dorado County communities. Here’s how that benefits your installation:
Local advantage 01
Fire zone battery expertise
We assess every Folsom home for enhanced rebate eligibility and make sure you capture every dollar available.
Local advantage 02
High-income area system design
Larger Folsom properties naturally come with higher baseline energy demands. To properly offset peak consumption and ensure complete whole-home backup, we custom-engineer systems for these larger loads, which frequently means pairing solar with a dual-battery setup.
Local advantage 03
PTO timeline expertise
PG&E’s interconnection queue can be unpredictable. Our Folsom-area experience means we know how to submit applications that move through the queue efficiently and don’t stall your project.
