What we check
Common questions about solar websites
What licensing does my solar website need to display?
Solar installation requires electrical contractor licensing in most states. California requires a C-46 Solar Contractor or C-10 Electrical Contractor license. Display your license number and verify it is current.
Can I advertise specific energy savings on my solar website?
Only if you can substantiate the claims. The FTC requires that energy savings claims be based on reliable evidence. Avoid specific dollar amounts or percentages unless backed by engineering data for your service area.
How should I present the federal solar tax credit?
The Investment Tax Credit (ITC) is a federal incentive, not a discount. Your website should clarify that it is a tax credit (not a rebate), that eligibility depends on the customer tax situation, and recommend consulting a tax professional.
