SOLAR ELECTRIC (PV)

Solar Forward is an Elite SunPower Dealer, installing residential and commercial solar systems. We are a full service installer, taking care of everything from system design and installation to permit and rebate paperwork. Our systems come with SunPower’s unparalleled 25-year Power & Product Warranty.

BATTERY BACK-UP AND ADVANCED ENERGY STORAGE

Solar Forward is highly experienced in the installation of battery back-up systems. There is a common misconception that once you go solar, you become immune to blackouts. The truth is, the only way to maintain power when the grid is down is with a battery back-up system. We install Outback Power and SMA battery back-up systems that will keep your critical loads operating with solar and/or battery power during any power failures.

ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGERS (EVSE)

When you trade in your gasoline dinosaur for an electric car, you can drive on sunshine, emission-free. Aside from the tremendous positive impact on the environment, electric vehicles are a great economic decision. Homeowners with an EV and PV save on both gas and electricity! Solar Forward will work with you to determine the amount of supplemental solar you will need to charge your EV.

MAINTENANCE, UPGRADES AND REPAIR

Solar Forward has over thirty years combined experience maintaining and repairing solar electric and hot water systems. Solar Forward provides panel cleanings to keep your panels performing at maximum efficiency. We also provide repair and replacement services for solar panels and inverters, and can diagnose any associated electrical issue. Our experienced professionals can examine your solar system and suggest cost-effective repairs or upgrades. We can transform a twenty-year-old, underperforming solar system into a state-of-the-art powerhouse. Most solar systems will last for decades, so call us to keep your electrons flowing!

CUSTOM SYSTEM DESIGN

Whether you want your refrigerator to keep working for a few days or your workplace server farm to stay on line during power outages, we can take care of you. Solar Forward has installed more battery backup systems than anyone else in Southern California. We do all types of battery storage systems; whether on-grid or off-grid, large or small. We have installed power for emergency response trailers, and done work for the Army and police forces. We even created a Solar Forward 2000 watt Solar Roller, which can produce up to 2000 watts for eight hours a day and be set up in less than an hour.
