What is a Solar Health Audit — and do I need one?

An audit answers the question most solar owners can't: "Is this thing actually working for me?" Six data points tell the whole story: year-over-year consumption, year-over-year production, install date, current utility rates, your solar payment, and any true-up costs.

From those, the math falls out: yearly consumption × current utility rate = what you'd pay without solar. Subtract your annualized solar payments and true-ups = your real savings. Compare production to consumption = whether you're over- or under-producing, and whether usage changes (new EV? teenager with a gaming rig?) have outgrown your design. My audit also reviews your agreement terms against what's fair and flags rebates you're leaving unclaimed — SDCP funds, VPP enrollment, the works. If you've had solar 2+ years and never checked, you're overdue.
