What does SCE charge you every month?
Every dollar on that slider is money sent to a monopoly. Let's see what you can take back.

Fontana's population has doubled since 2000, creating massive suburban sprawl with thousands of solar-ready rooftops. The inland heat means AC runs five or more months per year.

The SCE Problem in Fontana
Fontana sits deep in the Inland Empire heat zone, where summer temperatures push past 100 degrees regularly and AC units run from late April through mid-October. Homes in Summit Heights and Sierra Lakes are relatively new but feature open floor plans and high ceilings that demand powerful cooling systems. With SCE's Time-of-Use rates charging the highest prices during afternoon peak hours - the exact hours when Fontana homes need cooling most - monthly bills spike dramatically in summer.
Fontana summer temperatures reach 98°F+ - driving AC usage and SCE bills through the roof.
Why Solar Makes Sense in Fontana
Fontana is one of the largest and fastest-growing cities in the Inland Empire, with its population exceeding 215,000 and new residential construction continuing to expand northward toward the foothills. The city's geography is almost entirely flat, giving rooftops complete, unobstructed sun exposure throughout the day. Young families who moved to Fontana for affordable homeownership are discovering that solar is the most effective way to keep their total housing costs manageable as SCE rates keep rising.
Solar Savings in Fontana: What the Numbers Show
Based on current SCE rates, Fontana home sizes, and real PPA terms from local installers.
| Detail | With SCE | With Solar PPA |
|---|---|---|
| Avg. monthly bill | $265-$400/mo | ~40-55% less |
| Rate per kWh | 35+ cents (rising) | Locked rate, 3.5% escalator |
| Typical system size | N/A | 8.0 kW |
| Annual sun hours | N/A | 5,700+ |
| Upfront cost | Ongoing bills forever | $0 down (PPA) |
Estimates based on typical Fontana home size (8.0 kW system), current SCE rates, and standard PPA terms. Your actual savings depend on usage, roof, and system size.
Your Savings Scenario in Fontana
A Fontana homeowner in Summit Heights paying $330/mo to SCE would pay approximately $150/mo with solar - saving $180/mo from day one. Over 25 years, that's $54,000 kept in their pocket instead of sent to Edison.
With a solar PPA, your rate escalates at 3.5% - not 7%+
That gap compounds every year. Over 25 years, a homeowner paying $300/mo to SCE today would pay over $225,000 to Edison vs. ~$89,000 with solar. Same electricity. Half the cost.
