Project Overview
With a roof free of shade and no HOA restrictions, this Cary home was ready for a system built to perform.
We installed an 18.4 kW solar and storage system in Cary, North Carolina. The project combined 40 Canadian Solar panels, two Tesla Powerwall 3 batteries, and Tesla inverters.
Why This Home Went Solar
The decision started with a comparison where several providers were considered. The difference came down to quality and service. After removing trees to open more sun to the roof, this savvy homeowner saw the opportunity to lock in savings and add backup power to maximize their investment value.
System Details
- System Size: 18.4 kW DC
- Panels: 40 Canadian Solar CS6.1-54TM-460H
- Roof Type: Composite shingles
- Inverters: Two Tesla 7.6 kW Solar Inverters
- Battery Storage: Two Tesla Powerwall 3 units (11.5 kW each) with one Tesla Gateway
- Projected Annual Production: 18,139 kWh
- Projected Annual Savings: $2,938
This is a great system because it offsets utility bills while also delivering reliable storage when the grid fails. More roofs should work this hard.
Incentives and Financial Benefits
Two major incentives were also secured:
- The 30% Federal Solar Tax Credit, locked in before the 2025 deadline.
- The Duke Energy PowerPair Solar + Storage Rebate, reducing the cost of pairing panels with batteries.
Together, these incentives improved the financial return and shortened payback.
