Usually installed on the roof of homes and businesses, PV systems, or solar panels, are modular, making systems relatively easy to fit the available space or to expand at a later date.

As part of our commitment to meet portions of our future load growth through energy efficiency and renewable energy generation, Anaheim Public Utilities has installed PV systems at a number of city facilities. To encourage customers to commit to renewable energy generation, Anaheim Public Utilities offers incentives to residents and businesses that install PV systems.

By installing a PV system at your home or business, you can help offset your electric energy use with emission-free renewable generation.
