Milpitas enjoys over 260 sunny days per year, making it an excellent choice for solar power production. With PG&E electricity rates on the rise and summer cooling costs climbing, homeowners are increasingly investing in solar for long-term savings and greater energy independence. The city’s mix of modern homes and tech-driven residents makes solar a natural fit in this part of Silicon Valley.
Typical costs range from 2.80 to 3.70 dollars per watt, depending on system size and installer.
