The average solar installation in Southern California pays for itself in about seven years, according to ReLauren.
"After that, it's basically free energy," she says. She also notes that because her system generates more electricity than her household uses, it helps power other homes in the community.
In addition to saving money, solar power comes with an extraordinary sense of freedom. It can help keep the lights on during power outages, which are becoming more frequent as the warming climate fuels increasingly intense storms.
"This is energy independence," ReLauren says, "because I'm no longer at the mercy of whatever the utility company wants to charge."
