Why Solar

The Solar Energy industry is one of the fastest growing industries in the United States.

Astrawatt Solar Installation

Thanks to incentives and heightened consumer interest, the solar industry is poised for an unparalleled expansion in the coming decade — a once in a century opportunity.

01Solar Price Decrease

The average utility bill has increased by 15% over the past decade while the cost of solar has decreased by 70%. Some markets have experienced exponential utility rate increases with state and utility.

02Solar Tax Credits

The Solar Tax Credit (ITC) has been increased to 30% of the customer’s total solar energy system cost and has been extended for ten additional years through 2033.

03Low Market Reach

Only 1% of the total market has been reached, which presents a tremendous opportunity to be part of one of the fastest growing industries in the country.

04Increased Solar Adoption

It’s easy to see why the solar industry is called the Green Gold Rush — the number of solar installations are expected to quadruple between now and 2030.

05Residential Growth

More than 1 in 7 homes in the United States will have a solar PV system by the end of this decade.

06Recession-Proof Industry

Solar sales and installation companies will see the biggest benefit from this and will have the opportunity to become some of the most profitable and recession-proof companies in the country.

07Generate Carbon Offset

Franchisees will install enough solar every year to offset the equivalent CO2 emissions from about 80,000 pounds of coal being burned annually.

Why Astrawatt

Astrawatt Solar is the #1 Consumer Rated Solar Franchise in the United States.

We are solar consultants — our mission is to provide our customers with the information they need to make an educated choice when it comes to solar systems. Our training will give you the skills you need to sell solar and get off to a fast start making sales within the first month — our sales process is unrivaled.

We set ourselves apart by taking a different approach to solar sales & installation.

At Astrawatt Solar, we provide our franchisees with comprehensive training on every aspect of the solar industry — from marketing and sales to project management and installation.

Expert Training

We train you to become an expert in every stage of the solar industry. Other franchisees just train you on one aspect of the solar industry and have you partner with a subcontractor to perform solar installations.

Vertical Integration

We have more hands-on solar sales and installation experience than all U.S. solar franchise companies combined, and believe that by being vertically integrated, we can ensure true quality control over each project. Being in control of every step results in more happy customers, 5 star reviews, and referrals.
