San Diego Solar Sheds and ADU's

Solar sheds powered by off grid solar systems are growing in popularity as sustainable and cost effective solutions for those seeking energy independence. A simple shed can be utilized as an art studio or workshop. Custom designs or pre fabricated models can be outfitted with state of the art technology, without the need for grid connection. Some of our customers want a home office or storage space to charge tools. Other mentions include glamping pods, she sheds and even tree houses outfitted with lights, wifi, bluetooth and more. Off grid solar sheds in San Diego backyards increase useable square footage and provide a space to retreat and create.

Off Grid Solar Benefits

Eco Friendly, Cost Effective Power

Solar power and battery storage mitigate monthly costs for power and can considerably lower utility bills. Some of our customers just want a small space to set up a sauna or a cold plunge. Others utilize their off grid power for crafting and art projects.

Some recent studies even suggest that every dollar invested in solar power adds twenty dollars in home equity.

Solar panels and battery costs have come down considerably over the past few years. We all have a lot more options when it comes to utility. Although the initial cost of and off grid power station is a substantial investment; the benefits provided by these systems are tremendous. Imagine a free standing solar power station not affected by outages. A detached studio with no power bill and a sauna! A bunkhouse or treehouse equipped with internet, lighting, even heat and/or AC.

Solar Shed Basics- Sizing, Cost, Setbacks Etc.

Initial considerations for off grid solar applications include size and space requirements, budget parameters, setbacks and demand calculations. Solar panels can be ground mounted via sturdy frames or roof mounted to new and existing sheds.

System Design: A typical setup includes solar panels (sized to your kWh usage, e.g., 5kW for a small shed), lithium batteries for overnight power, and optionally a backup generator for rainy periods (common in winter). Adding the ability to back feed your system with a small generator during inclement or cloudy weather is a game changer.

Custom Projects and Satisfied Customers

★★★★★ 5/5

I have had the pleasure of working with Steve, Mike, and the SDIC crew multiple times over the past 15+ years. What initially began as a deck build has turned into multiple home renovations, two backyard builds, a pool house, and plenty of odd jobs in between. The team does impeccable work and participates in all facets from design to implementation. Down to earth honest craftsmanship you don't often find these days. A lot of contractors say they can do a lot of different things but these guys do it all well.
