Guide to Going Solar is owned and operated by Core Solar Solutions, LLC.
What we do

Installers who fit your needs

We connect you with solar installers who fit your location and needs. Using current satellite and LiDAR data on your roof plus a few key inputs from you, we generate your Home Solar Scorecard. It also covers available incentives, your utility’s excess energy credit policies and a battery fit analysis. A separate financing choice tool helps you weigh your financing options. You go into the conversation with the installers you’ve chosen informed and prepared.

What we stand for

Integrity, value, privacy

At our foundation is a passionate belief in solar and a commitment to providing real value to you and to installers, with the highest level of integrity and respect for your privacy. We never pass your information to any company other than those you explicitly choose.
