— Solar in Stockton —

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.

01

Sun & production

Stockton delivers 5.7 peak sun hours per day — giving your solar system strong year-round production. The Central Valley climate means your panels generate maximum power exactly when electricity demand and rates are highest.

02

Your utility & rates

Stockton homeowners are served by PG&E and subject to NEM 3.0 net billing. With average bills of $200–$280/month — and peak-hour rates hitting $0.45–$0.55/kWh — the financial case for solar + battery storage in Stockton has never been stronger.

03

Local energy landscape

Under NEM 3.0, PG&E pays just ~$0.06/kWh for solar you export — but charges you $0.42–$0.55/kWh to buy it back. Every Stockton solar installation Continuum designs includes storage to keep your energy in your home where it’s worth 7–9× more.

04

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 — and we design systems around them.

NEM 3.0 applies here: As a PG&E customer, your new solar installation falls under California’s Net Billing Tariff. Battery storage is the key to maximizing your savings — and Continuum designs every Stockton system with storage from the ground up.

— Why Continuum in Sacramento —

Local expertise. No shortcuts.

Continuum isn’t a national company treating Sacramento as a distant market. We’re a Northern California solar company — and Sacramento County is our backyard. Here’s what that 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 interconnection timelines to the right system size for your specific summer cooling loads. Stockton’s hot summers mean your AC runs hard right when grid electricity is most expensive. We design every system around that reality.

Local advantage 02

Central Valley system design

Stockton’s climate is ideal for solar — over 260 sunny days per year and strong irradiance from April through October. We size every system to offset your peak summer loads, not just your annual average. That means real savings during the months that matter most.

The Continuum difference: We’ve installed thousands of solar systems across Northern California. We know Stockton County’s permit requirements, PG&E interconnection process, and the specific energy challenges Stockton homeowners face. That local knowledge translates directly into faster installations and better-designed systems.
