California’s Solar Potential

California’s solar potential is massive. There are 14.8 billion square feet of open roof space in the state. The total production capacity of California’s roofs is estimated at 336,000 Megawatts of Direct Current power, which can deliver 498,000,000 Megawatt hours of AC power every year. Conventional wisdom says 1 MWh can power 100 homes, providing reliable, affordable electricity for about 5 million homes—two-thirds of the single-family homes in California.

Opportunities for Businesses

A vast amount of open roof space is owned by commercial and industrial firms. Add to that all the open parking spaces where cars sit and bake under the summer sun, and the potential for property owners to generate power and resell electricity to tenants becomes enormous.

What’s missing for many property owners is the engineering support and software needed to deploy and monetize solar power effectively.
