The honest answer
Solar panels are built to last for decades, but their output typically declines gradually over time (degradation). Studies often report typical degradation rates around ~0.5% per year depending on module type and conditions.
Why this matters for homeowners
Your system should still perform well long-term
Your expected savings should be based on realistic production
Monitoring catches issues early (so you don’t lose months of output)
What we do differently
We design layouts for strong production—not just “filling roof space.”
We use clean installs with long-term reliability in mind.
We recommend monitoring so you can actually see performance trends.
“The best solar system is the one you never have to think about—because it just works.”
Final thoughts
Solar is a long game. Design and install quality is what determines whether it stays profitable year after year.
