Why Oklahoma City homeowners are comparing solar companies now
Oklahoma City sits at the center of two colliding forces: rising utility rates and a data center construction boom that is straining OG&E's grid. PSO signed a single customer agreement for 1,000+ MW of power. OG&E proposed a surcharge starting at 55 cents per month, escalating to $4.41 by 2031, just for data center infrastructure.
With 235+ sunny days per year and OG&E's net metering program, OKC homeowners can generate real savings. A typical home with a $200 monthly OG&E bill will pay over $51,000 to the utility over 15 years at current rate trends. Oklahoma's statewide residential annual average is up 29.6% since 2020. A solar system pays for itself in 8-12 years, then produces free electricity for 13-17 more.
We handle the parts that make or break an Oklahoma City solar installation: site assessment, system design, roof and electrical review, City of Oklahoma City permitting, OG&E interconnection and final inspection.

Oklahoma City Solar FAQ
How does net metering work with OG&E?
OG&E's net metering program credits you for excess solar energy you send to the grid. When your panels produce more than your home uses (common during sunny afternoons), that energy flows to the grid and your meter effectively runs backward. You receive a bill credit at a blended rate that covers energy, fuel and purchased power charges (not the full retail rate, which also includes delivery and fixed fees). At the end of each billing cycle, you only pay for the net energy you consumed.
How will data centers affect my electric bill?
Oklahoma has 18+ data centers under construction and 36+ already operating. PSO signed a single customer agreement for over 1,000 MW. OG&E proposed a monthly surcharge starting at 55 cents in 2026, escalating to $4.41 by 2031, specifically for data center grid infrastructure. Every ratepayer shares the cost of grid upgrades these facilities require. Solar reduces your exposure to these pass-through charges.
What about Oklahoma hail and severe storms?
We install Tier 1 panels rated to withstand 1-inch hail at 50+ mph. These panels are tested to IEC 61215 standards and built for climates like Oklahoma. Your panels are also covered under your homeowner's insurance.
Do I need a new roof before going solar?
If your roof has less than 10 years of life remaining, we recommend replacing it first. We handle roofing and solar as one project, which saves you money and keeps everything under one warranty.
What's the payback period for solar in OKC?
For a cash purchase, most OKC homeowners see payback in 8-12 years. After that, the electricity your system produces is essentially free for the remaining 13-17 years of panel life (panels carry 25+ year warranties). Financed systems typically have monthly payments that match or beat your current OG&E bill from day one.
Do you handle permits and OG&E paperwork?
Yes. We handle every piece of paperwork: City of Oklahoma City building permits, structural engineering, OG&E interconnection application and final inspection coordination. You sign the initial agreement and we manage the rest through activation.
