Calistoga Solar & Battery Installation
Clean power for Calistoga, since 1984.
SolarCraft designs solar and battery as one system, sized to your home, backed by 40 years across the valley and the solar we built at Indian Springs right here in Calistoga.
Solar for homes in Calistoga
Calistoga is a small town with in-town lots near downtown and homes spreading into the foothills toward Mount St. Helena, so we design each system to the property rather than a template. We start with your roof and PG&E usage, confirm orientation, shade, and roof condition, check that your main panel is ready for storage, and size solar and battery together based on how your home actually uses power.
If anything needs attention before installation, we flag it up front.
Backup power for Calistoga homes
A home battery does two jobs. Day-to-day, it stores your own solar for the evening under NEM 3.0, when the power you export earns far less than what you pay after sunset. And when the grid goes down, it is designed to keep your essential circuits running, with the backup duration depending on the battery size and the circuits you choose, which we size with you. We install Tesla Powerwall, Enphase, and Franklin systems, matched to your home.

Calistoga solar & battery FAQ
How much does solar cost for a home in Calistoga?
It depends on your roof, your usage, and whether you add a battery, so we price each system to your home rather than quoting a flat number. With the Prepaid PPA, many homeowners pay one discounted upfront price, 20-30% less, and own the system after six years. We'll put real numbers in a written proposal.
Who handles the City of Calistoga permit and PG&E paperwork?
Do you install commercial solar for Calistoga resorts and businesses?
Yes. We built the 140 kW system at the Indian Springs Resort here in Calistoga. Commercial systems are sized to offset a portion of a facility's electricity use, and we design each one around the building's load and roof.
Do I need a battery with my solar?
Will a battery keep my home powered in an outage?
A home battery is designed to keep your essential circuits, or with the right sizing, much of the home, running during a power outage. Runtime depends on your battery size and which circuits you back up, both of which we size with you.
Will solar work on my roof in Calistoga?
Most roofs are a good fit. We model your roof's real sun and shade across the day and size the array to your usage. Where a roof is shaded or undersized, we'll talk through options such as optimizers or a ground-mounted system on larger lots.
How does the Prepaid PPA work?
You pay one discounted upfront price, with no monthly solar payments, no escalators, and no buyout, and you own the system after six years. A commercial financing partner captures the available tax incentives and passes the savings to you, 20-30%.
