professional Residential Solar Installation services
Over the past decades, home solar panels have become a very popular investment in Hawaii. Homeowners are moving toward a clean energy source to lower electric bills, reduce environmental impact, and increase the value of their homes.
Additionally, storms leave thousands of Americans without power every year, and it can be almost impossible to know when electricity will be back. By having solar panels, combined with a solar battery, you can keep your lights on after a disaster strikes.
Regis Electric's residential solar installation team has the tools and experience to make the installation process hassle-free.

How we SAVE YOU MONEY WITH SOLAR PANELS
We install a solar array system is installed on your roof which generates electricity from the sun. This power is consumed by your home and reduces your monthly electrical bills.
Going more into the scientific aspects, solar panels work by converting light energy into usable electricity, also known as the photovoltaic effect.
Solar panels save you money over decades and provide low-carbon, sustainable electricity.
Grid-tied solar systems are linked back to the electrical grid while off-grid ones utilize batteries that store solar energy as electricity for when you need it most.
To calculate exactly how many panels you will need, we recommend calling one of our expert electrical technicians at Regis Electric.
Do Solar Panels Really Save Money?
Yes, solar panels save you money, but how much depends on your specific situation. Direct hours of daily sunlight and the size and angle of your roof are all important factors. If your roof is shaded or obstructed from lighting, it will impact how viable solar is for you.
Finding solar information you can rely on can be difficult. At Regis Electric, we customize each system for homeowners and provide honest and transparent information based on our years of experience in the industry.
Solar panels are one of the most environmentally friendly ways of producing energy and are a part of the solution to climate change. Take a stand for the future—reduce your carbon footprint.
Since 2010, Regis Electric has been a trusted solar contractor on the Big Island of Hawaii.
Some advantages of solar panels are:
Electricity is generated for free during the day, and we can help you store energy for when the sun goes down or the power goes out.
Solar panels will help reduce the use of non-renewable energy. It achieves this by reducing the consumption of the grid.
If you decide to sell your home someday, a residential solar energy system helps increase your property's value.
Home solar panels are durable and can withstand extreme weather conditions, they are easy to clean and can last for years with little to no maintenance.
By including battery backups with your solar system, you can access electricity during the night, during power outages, and storms.
What Are Solar Batteries?
The primary function of solar batteries is to store energy produced by solar panels, allowing you to power up your home during nighttime or as a backup power source during an outage.
When you have a solar panel system without a solar battery, the excess power generated usually gets sent back to the grid. But with solar batteries, energy is stored, and you’ll only need to pay for the electricity used when your battery is depleted.
This helps reduce costs in peak times when electricity typically costs more.
If you’re having trouble deciding which option to go for, Regis Electric can help provide advice on choosing what is best for your home.
We offer free estimates and design each system specifically for your roof.
The Process Of Home Solar installations
While every system is different, the basic process of investing in solar looks something like this:
We will need your basic information, such as your home address to get started. We can also provide information on all applicable rebates and tax incentives available.
A copy of your recent utility bill will help us see the amount of power your home typically uses, allowing us to better design a system for your needs.
We would like to understand what are the major energy drains for your home, like air conditioners and hot tubs, and if there are permanent residents living on the property.
From here, we design your system and give you at least two, if not, three options so you can see what is available for your situation.
Once you have chosen the best system for your home, we begin the process of installing the system on your roof.
Once installed, we test the system thoroughly to ensure that it works as intended and generates power efficiently.
Warranty is included from our premium manufacturers - with inverters having 10-15 years and panels having a 25-year warranty.
If you have any questions, we are here to help you every step of the way.

How Long Will My Solar Panels Last?
Longevity varies on the model; however, a set of solar panels can last 30 years or longer. After the 3-decade intended lifespan, it doesn’t mean that your solar panels will stop producing electricity. It only means that the energy production has decreased to what most manufacturers would consider a viable amount for usage.
As long as solar panels aren’t physically damaged, they rarely break from within and will continue to work for decades, providing you with consistent energy from our sun. If there are any problems, you don’t need to worry; Regis Electric has a 25-year warranty on solar panels and microinverters and a 10-year warranty on inverters and batteries.
Once installed, we can work together to monitor how your power consumption and production are helping you lower your electricity expenses.
We pride ourselves on our standards and guidelines, ensuring that each project is done correctly.
