We install solar. You save money.

Burbank is one of a handful of cities in LA County with its own municipal utility — Burbank Water and Power (BWP). This makes solar installation in Burbank different from neighboring cities served by SCE or LADWP. Anca Solar has deep experience working with BWP's interconnection process and understands the specific requirements for Burbank solar installations.

Why Burbank Is Ideal for Solar

Burbank's inland San Fernando Valley location delivers over 285 sunny days per year with hot summers that drive high air conditioning usage. BWP electricity rates are competitive but rising, and a properly sized solar system can offset most or all of your electric bill. The city's mix of single-family homes with good roof exposure makes Burbank an excellent solar market.

Burbank Water and Power Solar Programs

BWP operates its own net energy metering program separate from SCE. Under BWP's program, excess solar energy you generate is credited to your account at a rate set by BWP's tariff schedule. BWP has historically been supportive of residential solar and has offered rebate programs for solar and battery installations. We stay current with all BWP incentive offerings and help you take full advantage of available programs.

Burbank Permitting Process

Solar permits in Burbank go through the Burbank Community Development Department. The city follows California's streamlined solar permitting guidelines (AB 2188), but BWP interconnection has its own application process and timeline. We manage the entire workflow — permit application, structural and electrical plans, city inspections, and BWP interconnection — so you have a single point of contact from start to finish.

Common Burbank Installations

We install solar throughout Burbank's diverse neighborhoods, including Magnolia Park, the Rancho district, Hillside homes near the Verdugo Mountains, Media District, and downtown Burbank residential areas. Burbank's housing stock ranges from 1940s ranch-style homes to newer townhomes and hillside properties. Each roof type — tile, composition shingle, or flat — requires different mounting solutions, and we design systems tailored to your specific home.

Battery Storage with BWP

Adding battery storage to your Burbank solar system provides backup power during outages and helps you maximize the value of your solar production. We install Tesla Powerwall, Enphase IQ Battery, and Franklin WH systems. We also serve nearby Glendale, Pasadena, and Sherman Oaks. See all LA County solar services. CSLB License #873768.
