Solar for Manufactured and Mobile Homes in Carlsbad
Carlsbad sits in coastal North County, where San Diego Gas and Electric rates run among the highest in California. Carlsbad has several large manufactured home communities along the coast, and how each is metered depends on when it was built.
Master metered or directly metered?
Master Metered Parks
If your Carlsbad park was built before January 1, 1997, there's a real chance the park owner holds a single utility meter and bills residents through submeters.

If your park was built on or after that date, your home almost certainly has its own utility account.

Nothing up front, a locked-in rate below your current utility cost, and no credit check at any point.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need good credit to get solar in Carlsbad?
No. There's no credit check anywhere in this process.
San Diego rates are already high. Does that help or hurt?
It helps. The higher your current rate, the larger the gap between it and a locked solar rate, and that gap is the savings.
Does coastal weather affect production?
Coastal marine layer affects output modestly, and it is one of the things assessed for your specific home before anything is agreed.
