One of the first steps to gaining energy independence is choosing which solar panel system to invest in. Each system will give you clean, renewable energy. Next, you have to determine how much you want to depend on the traditional grid.
Your choice is more than deciding to be on or off the grid. The amount of roof space you have, the angle of your roof, and other factors out of your control affect which system will work best for you. To help you better understand your solar system choices and what might work best for your home, here’s an explainer of the three main system types.
The “grid” is the utility company’s existing infrastructure that brings their power to your building. A grid-tiered system means your home is connected to your solar panel system, but you can access the utility company’s power grid as needed. This is crucial if your roof doesn’t have enough space for many panels or if you don’t have battery storage. That way, if the power goes out or there is poor weather, you aren’t left in the dark.
As a bonus, if your panels produce more energy than your home needs, you may have the option to sell it back to your electric company.
This is the most common type of system for homes and small businesses. Even if your home isn’t designed in a way to maximize solar, your system will still help offset your utility bill.
Say goodbye to the electric company and hello to absolute energy independence.
An off-grid system means you completely disconnect from the grid and power your home entirely with solar energy. While you’ll no longer see a bill from your electric company, this will require a more significant investment upfront.
Moving off the grid requires a battery storage system. That way, you can power through the night and inclement weather without worrying about running out of energy. These batteries will also be larger than if you were still connected to the grid. It is also a good idea to invest in a generator, just in case.
Before disconnecting, know how much energy your home uses. That way, your production will match your needs. Depending on the size of your roof, you may not be able to install enough panels to power your home with solar energy. If you live on a large parcel of land, you can install solar panels on the ground to help.
A hybrid system is a safe middle ground. Your panels will still work hard for you, but you’re still connected to the grid, just in case. A hybrid system will also come with battery storage, so you don’t have to rely on the grid when the weather is poor.
Every part of your SunPower Equinox® system is designed and backed by one company. It’s the best warranty you may never have to use.
SunPower stands behind your entire system
No receipts, no hassle
Panels warranted at an industry-best 92% power in year 25
First and only AC system-wide warranty, which includes solar panels and microinverters.
25 years for everything on your roof (including panels, microinverters and mounting)
10 years for everything not on your roof (including monitoring hardware and storage)
Get peace of mind with the only home solar warranty to cover your whole system (not just the panels), so you never have to wonder which company you can depend on.
Not only does SunPower offer the most complete system warranty for solar in Utah, there are even more reasons SunPower by Custom Energy is the best solar company in Utah.
Your decision will depend on your home’s architecture, the size of the land you live on and what your individual needs are. You’ll also want to remember that solar panel efficiency degrades over time, so while you may make enough energy to go off the grid now, that may change in 10 years. Custom Energy SunPower solar panels only lose 8% of their efficiency over 25 years, compared to conventional solar panels, which lose 19.3%.
You’ll have more freedom in choosing the right type of solar panel system by investing in a product that will provide more power with the smallest surface area. SunPower system panels have microinverters built into them, which optimizes the amount of the sun’s rays that are adapted into energy. The system also seamlessly pairs with our batteries to provide independence at night.

Very good experience from initial contact, education on solar, competitive pricing, excellent coordination of professional installation and outstanding follow up! Very happy with system!— Mark Lyons
I had a SunPower system (35 panels and 2 batteries) installed by Custom Electrical (Custom Energy). I found them knowledgeable and easy to work with from the project start to finish. The design and install crews did excellent work and took my concerns into account. Their work was completed on time and on budget. I would use them again in the future and I certainly recommend them.— Steve Kaylor
We contacted Custom Energy late in the fall hoping that our system could be installed before year end. They worked quickly with the design and permitting process and installation was completed in December. They did a very professional job and everything works like it is supposed to.— ROBERT FOLEY
They came by and did the standard entry point spraying and checked for rodents. Very professional, friendly, and quick. They always ask if there is anything I've noticed in between treatments that they should look for and are very happy to check and treat if necessary. Very happy with the service!— Jeri Deneen
Had a bad experience Edge Pest control but the customer care manager called and resolved my issue. He explained that he would communicate with the employees so that in the future there would be less miscommunication and better service.— Chris D
The staff has always been prompt and friendly. The last service guy even text me a picture of a large opening that needed to be resealed and offered to fix it that day. It was an area that I normally wouldn’t even looked at and appreciate the extra effort to notify me of a potential problem. I’ve been impressed from the beginning with Edge. In fact, we never buy anything from door to door sales but the sales guy was so knowledgeable & friendly that my husband happily signed up.— demi sockwell

I have been a customer since March 2020 and am proud to say that I appreciate and value the services provided by Edge. I have peace of mind knowing my kids and pets are safe from a variety of pests that we inherited with our new home. Their product is one of a kind however, the technicians are what really make this company stand out to me. Each technician I’ve encountered always has a vast knowledge about Edge’s products, they do a great job explaining them to you, and are happy to share their firsthand experiences in dealing with these pests directly. Graham is my regular technician and he is awesome! Not only do I trust him but I can also depend on him to answer my questions and make recommendations. If I ever have a problem or need additional services he is only a text away and is always professional and timely with his responses. He is also very courteous and not pushy when he informs me about new products and services offered by Edge. I would definitely recommend Edge’s services to anyone looking for A+ pest control solutions with technicians that will exceed your expectations. Thank you Edge!— James McKee

The service technicians are professional and knowledgeable. They always contact us to let us know when they will be arriving at our home to perform any service.— Marie Smith
Got Edge peat control to help me with grain beettle issue. First service was ok. I called in 2 weeks since it wasn't going down, they were responsive and sent someone the next day. Beetles started going down after that. Then after 1 month, they came again and Graham sprayed the house thoroughly. Very happy with Graham. Wish he came the other times too. He was very professional and took care of outside the house as well. We haven't seen ants or other bugs that we seen last summer. Beetle problem went down a lot and hoping with another spray, we should be able to kill them all. Update 11/13: Still having issues but a manager took over my account and has been actively working on to get rid of my beettles issue. Very happy with their service. I understand that bug issues are a process to eliminate but Edge is working hard to get my house beettles free.— Sharaf Ahmed
Nice, professional, and explained everything. Showed me problem areas I didnt know I had. I am very happy with the service.— Tamara Hendrix
