What Redding homeowners need to know.
Redding and Shasta County are served by PG&E. The region’s combination of extreme summer heat, high fire risk, and significant PSPS history makes solar + battery storage one of the most compelling investments available to northern California homeowners.
Sun & production
Redding averages over 6.3 peak sun hours per day — one of the highest production figures in the entire Continuum service area and among the best in California. More sun means faster payback and higher annual savings.
Your utility & rates
Shasta County sits firmly in PG&E’s High Fire Threat District, and Redding has experienced some of the most severe wildfire events in California history (2018 Carr Fire). PSPS events are a recurring reality for local homeowners.
Local energy landscape
Redding’s extreme summer heat drives some of the highest residential AC loads in the state — averaging 105°F+ days in July and August. This high-energy-cost profile means solar ROI in Redding is exceptional compared to the state average.
Fire zone alert: Redding is designated a High Fire Threat District by PG&E. This makes local homeowners among the strongest candidates for SGIP Equity Resiliency rebates — potentially covering 100% of battery storage costs. . Ask Continuum about your eligibility in your free assessment.
Local expertise. No shortcuts. No subcontractors.
Continuum isn’t a national company treating Redding as a distant market. We’re a Northern California solar company — and Shasta County is our backyard. Here’s what that means for your installation:
Local advantage 01
Extreme heat system design
Redding’s climate demands systems designed for the most demanding conditions. We use equipment rated for high-temperature operation and design arrays that maintain strong production even during Redding’s extreme summer heat events — when production and savings potential are both at their peak.
Local advantage 02
Fire zone resilience first
Every Redding installation is designed with PSPS protection as a core requirement. We size battery systems for the multi-day outage durations Shasta County has experienced and configure automatic islanding to protect your family when the grid goes down without warning.
Local advantage 03
Highest SGIP rebate priority
Redding-area homeowners have among the strongest SGIP Equity Resiliency rebate eligibility in California. We make maximum rebate capture the first step in every Redding assessment — it directly determines the right system size and what it costs you out of pocket.
Our commitment
In-house crews only
Every Continuum installation in Redding 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 Shasta County’s permit requirements, PG&E’s interconnection process, and the specific energy challenges Redding 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 Redding follows the same rigorous process. One team, start to finish. No dropped handoffs, no surprises.
