Solar That’s Right-Sized for Your Home — Not Oversold.
Denver Solar Installers Who Start with Your Home and Not Just Your Roof
NABCEP-Certified Solar Installation Built on 15 Years of Colorado Energy Expertise
Before we design your solar system, our BPI-certified team evaluates your insulation, air sealing, and HVAC performance. By reducing your home’s energy waste first, we can right-size your solar installation, which often means fewer panels, a lower price tag, and faster payback. It’s the approach that’s made us Xcel Energy’s Top Rebate-Producing Residential Trade Partner for 12 consecutive years.
As a locally owned Colorado company with NABCEP-certified installers, we handle every project in-house from design, permitting, and installation. No subcontractors, no handoffs. The team you meet is the team that shows up on your roof.
Our Denver-area solar customers typically see monthly electric bills drop to $10-$50, with system costs ranging from $16,000 to $25,000 after federal tax credits and available rebates. Most systems pay for themselves within 7-10 years and continue producing for 25+ years after that.

Battery Backup Systems
Reliable Power. Lower Bills. Greater Independence.
REenergizeCO’s battery backup systems store solar energy to power your home when it matters most—during outages and expensive peak-rate hours. This means greater reliability and serious long-term savings. With a battery backup system, excess solar energy is captured and stored for later use, reducing your dependence on the grid. During Time-of-Use peak hours—when electricity rates are highest—the battery automatically supplies power to your home, helping offset utility costs while maximizing the value of your solar energy.
Battery backup systems also provide peace of mind as extreme weather events and grid instability become more common. By automatically switching to stored power during an outage, your home stays powered without interruption, helping protect sensitive electronics and maintain everyday comfort when the grid goes down.
Why Add Battery Storage?
- Offset Peak-Time Utility Rates – Use stored energy when electricity is most expensive.
- Reliable Backup Power – Keep essential appliances running during grid outages.
- Lower Monthly Bills – Reduce dependence on the grid and avoid high TOU charges.
- Energy Independence – Gain more control over your home’s energy supply.
- Perfect Solar Pairing – Maximize your system’s value with seamless solar + storage integration.
Our experts will design a custom solution based on your home’s energy needs—for long-term savings, security, and peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions About Solar Energy
Why Should I Consider Solar for my Denver home?
Colorado is one of the best states in the country for residential solar. Denver averages over 300 days of sunshine per year, and our high altitude means stronger UV exposure, translating to more energy per panel than in most U.S. locations.
Beyond the climate advantage, Colorado homeowners have access to strong financial incentives, including the Xcel Energy rebates, and local programs such as Denver’s Climate Action Rebate (CARe). When these incentives are stacked together, most homeowners see their total system cost drop to the $16,000–$25,000 range.
The practical benefit is straightforward: you produce your own electricity, reduce or eliminate your monthly electric bill, and lock in your energy costs against future rate increases. Xcel Energy customers have seen rates climb steadily, and solar lets you step off that escalator.
What Should I Consider Before Installing Solar Panels?
Most Colorado homes are well-suited for solar, but a few factors affect how well a system will perform.
- Roof condition and orientation matter most. South-facing roofs capture the most sunlight, but east- and west-facing roofs work well too especially in Colorado where our sun exposure is strong year-round. Your roof should be structurally sound and ideally have 15+ years of life remaining, since solar panels last 25-30 years.
- Shading from trees or neighboring structures reduces panel output. Our design team uses satellite imaging and on-site assessment to map shade patterns across your roof throughout the day and year.
- Your home’s energy efficiency is the factor most solar companies overlook and it’s where we start. If your home is losing heat through poor insulation or air leaks, your energy consumption is artificially high. That means you’d need a bigger (more expensive) solar system to offset it. Our approach is to fix the efficiency problems first, then size your solar system to match your actual needs. This often results in a smaller system that costs less and delivers the same savings.
We evaluate all of these factors during a home energy consultation at no cost to you.
What Size Should My Solar Energy System Be?
The right system size depends on your household’s energy usage, roof space, and shading conditions. On average, Colorado homes need 18-24 panels to cover their electricity use — but this varies significantly from home to home.
Here’s a quick way to estimate: the average U.S. home uses about 900 kWh per month (10,800 kWh annually). Using a standard Colorado production ratio of 1.4, that translates to roughly 7,700 watts of solar capacity — or about 18-19 panels at today’s typical 420W panel rating.
But we don’t rely on averages. Our process starts with understanding your actual energy consumption, including planned additions like an EV charger or heat pump, and then accounts for your roof’s specific orientation, shading, and Colorado’s high-altitude sun exposure.
The result is a system sized for your home, not a one-size-fits-all estimate. That precision is why our customers consistently see the savings we project.
Q: What Does The Solar Installation Process Look Like with REenergizeCO?
First, sunlight will hit a solar panel on the roof of your home. The panels will then convert that light into a DC energy current which flows from the panel to the inverter. The inverter will convert the electricity from DC to AC which is what powers your home. Simple as that!
Keep in mind that a PV system often produces more energy than the average consumer needs. This excess energy is then fed back into the grid for other uses, resulting in a credit to the customer for the excess energy their solar panel system has produced.
It will also store extra energy for use on days where the sun is not prevalent. Net metering policies in Colorado are some of the best in the United States. A net meter will record the amount of energy your system sends to the grid and credit that back to you—further reducing your electricity bills and maximizing your savings.
This is how solar power transforms sunlight into clean energy that reduces your dependence on fossil fuels while lowering your utility bills month after month. The entire process is seamless, automatic, and requires minimal maintenance once your solar installation is complete.
How Much Does It Cost to Install Solar Panels in Colorado?
The total cost of a residential solar system depends on your home’s energy needs, system size, and equipment choices. Our customers typically invest $16,000–$25,000 after applying available incentives.
Here’s how the incentives break down:
- Xcel Energy Rebates: As Xcel’s Top Rebate-Producing Residential Trade Partner for 12 consecutive years, we know how to maximize every available rebate for our customers.
- Denver CARe Program: Denver residents may qualify for additional city rebates on solar, battery storage, and EV charging.
- Colorado RENU Loan Program: Low-interest, no-money-down financing is available for qualifying homeowners through Colorado’s clean energy fund.
As for return on investment: most of our customers see monthly electric bills drop to $10-$50, with average monthly savings of $50-$150. At that rate, a typical system pays for itself within 7-10 years and continues producing clean energy for 25+ years beyond that.
We also factor in rising utility rates. Xcel Energy customers have seen consistent rate increases, and that trend is expected to continue. Solar locks in your electricity cost, protecting you from future rate hikes.
Every quote we provide is fully transparent with equipment, installation, warranties, and a detailed breakdown of every incentive you qualify for. No hidden fees, no surprises.
What is the Best Company for Solar Panel Installation?
Not all solar installers are the same. Here’s what to look for and what sets REenergizeCO apart.
- Certifications matter. NABCEP certification is the gold standard for solar installers. Our team holds it, along with BPI certification for building performance. We’ve also been Xcel Energy’s Top Rebate-Producing Residential Trade Partner every year since 2013.
- Local experience matters. National solar companies apply the same playbook everywhere. Colorado’s altitude, snow loads, hail exposure, and extreme temperature swings require installers who understand this climate. We’ve been designing systems for the Front Range since 2012.
- A whole-home approach matters. The best solar investment starts with understanding your home’s efficiency. Companies that skip the energy audit step often oversize systems — costing you more upfront without proportional savings.
- In-house crews matter. We never subcontract. The team on your roof is our team — trained, certified, and accountable. That’s why we have over 900 five-star reviews across Google and Yelp.
- Long-term support matters. We service and maintain solar systems even if we didn’t install them. When you choose REenergizeCO, you’re choosing a partner for the life of your system, not just the installation day.
