How GridPermit Works

Three simple steps to generate a preliminary solar and battery estimate and optionally explore quotes through an independent third-party marketplace.

Step 1: Enter Your Baseline Details

Enter a US ZIP code and estimated monthly electricity bill. The calculator uses regional rate averages and standardized assumptions.

Step 2: Review Your Preliminary Estimate

Compare modeled solar-only and solar-plus-battery payback, system sizing, and potential long-term savings. Results are educational estimates, not property-specific engineering or financial advice.

Step 3: Explore Third-Party Quotes

Optionally continue to an independent third-party marketplace for property-specific pricing and installer proposals. GridPermit does not provide, review, certify, or guarantee installer quotes.
