⚡Why Go Solar in the Grand Strand?

Beachside Sun = More Savings

The Grand Strand enjoys more sunny days than most of the Southeast — making it one of the top coastal regions in the U.S. for solar production. Whether you're in North Myrtle, Conway, Surfside, or Garden City, your home is a power plant waiting to happen.

Add in strong local grid infrastructure, rising electric rates, and generous solar rebates — and it’s no wonder thousands of Santee Cooper customers have already made the switch.

🙋 FAQ

Questions from Your Neighbors

Q: Can I get solar even if I have an HOA?
A: Yes. South Carolina law prevents HOAs from blocking solar panel installations. We’ve worked with HOAs from Myrtle Beach to Pawleys Island.

Q: How long until I see savings?
A: Most customers see a drop in their bill immediately after activation — and many recoup their system cost in 5–7 years, with 25+ years of free power ahead.
