A Rich History of Service


California Solar Electric has been a vital part of the Santa Barbara community for many years. Since our beginnings, our mission has remained clear: to provide top-notch solar energy solutions that empower homeowners and businesses alike. Understanding the specific needs of Santa Barbara residents has allowed us to build strong relationships based on trust and dependability.


Over the years, we've installed over 500 solar systems throughout the community, helping homeowners save an average of 80% on their energy bills while significantly reducing carbon footprints. This shift towards renewable energy sources reflects the growing commitment of our community to sustainability, and we are thrilled to support this positive transformation.

In Santa Barbara, where we enjoy around 300 days of sunshine a year, the potential for solar energy generation is substantial. Customers are often amazed by how solar energy can dramatically lower their monthly expenses. For instance, some homeowners have reported a reduction of their electric bills by over 50% after adopting solar energy. We are excited to guide them through the journey of harnessing this renewable resource.

Our success in Santa Barbara is built on a foundation of customer service. We believe that every customer deserves personalized attention that fits their specific needs. From the first consultation through installation and ongoing maintenance, we prioritize clear communication and outstanding service.


We take the time to educate our clients about their solar options, enabling them to make informed decisions that align with their energy goals. Our commitment to client satisfaction continues beyond installation; we also provide ongoing support to ensure that systems operate at their best for years to come.


Community Impact


We understand that our work at California Solar Electric extends beyond solar installations. We strive to create a positive impact in the Santa Barbara community. Our initiatives focus on sustainability education and community awareness about the benefits of solar energy.


By teaming up with local organizations, we have delivered workshops, educational programs in schools, and community events aimed at raising awareness of renewable energy. In 2022, we reached over 1,000 students through our outreach programs, showcasing the importance of sustainability and solar energy. These efforts align with our mission to foster a greener future for Santa Barbara.
