Solar + storage in
Lincoln, CA.
Lincoln is one of Northern California’s fastest-growing communities — and a prime solar market. High sun hours, rising PG&E bills, and strong SGIP rebate access make this one of the best places in the state to go solar + storage.

What Lincoln homeowners need to know.
Lincoln homeowners are served by PG&E, making NEM 3.0 the governing solar policy for new installations. Battery storage is the critical piece that makes solar financially compelling under the current rate structure.
Sun & production
Lincoln’s Sun City Del Webb and newer master-planned communities have excellent solar suitability — well-oriented rooftops, minimal shading, and homeowners who are already energy-conscious.
Your utility & rates
Placer County’s strong growth means Lincoln has a high proportion of newer homes — making solar installation cleaner and more straightforward than in older housing stock with complex rooflines.
Local energy landscape
Lincoln’s semi-rural surroundings mean some homes on the outer edges of town are in areas that experience occasional grid reliability issues — making battery backup an increasingly practical choice.
NEM 3.0 applies here: As a PG&E customer, your new solar installation falls under California’s Net Billing Tariff. Battery storage is the key to maximizing your savings — and Continuum designs every Lincoln system with storage from the ground up.
Local expertise. No shortcuts. No subcontractors.
Continuum isn’t a national company treating Lincoln as a distant market. We’re a Northern California solar company — and Placer County is our backyard. Here’s what that means for your installation:
Local advantage 01
New construction expertise
Lincoln’s booming new development means many homeowners are either adding solar to new construction or upgrading recently built homes. We work closely with builders and homeowners on system integration during and after construction.
Local advantage 02
Active adult community experience
Sun City Lincoln Hills and Del Webb’s Lincoln Crossing have specific HOA requirements and rooftop considerations. Continuum has experience navigating HOA approvals and design requirements in these communities.
Local advantage 03
Right-sized systems
Lincoln’s relatively newer and more energy-efficient homes often have lower baseline consumption — which means solar systems can be right-sized rather than oversized, reducing upfront cost while maintaining strong ROI.
Our commitment
In-house crews only
Every Continuum installation in Lincoln is done by our own trained technicians — never a third-party subcontractor. That means quality control from design through activation, and a team that stands behind their work long after installation day.
The Continuum difference: We’ve installed thousands of solar systems across Northern California. We know Placer County’s permit requirements, PG&E’s interconnection process, and the specific energy challenges Lincoln homeowners face. That local knowledge translates directly into faster installations and better-designed systems.
From your first call to full power — our process.
Every Continuum installation in Lincoln follows the same rigorous process. One team, start to finish. No dropped handoffs, no surprises.
We cover all of Placer County and beyond.
