Renters / Pick all three that fit
Build your own kit: renters
Use the planner below: choose Rent, add your state and goal, and it tells you what applies, including your lease.
Plan my plug-in solar setup
Your state's law, your goal and where you live decide what makes sense. The plan updates as you go, and every line says why.
The planner uses fixed, published rules, not AI guesses. It shows no prices and calls nothing "best". State status comes from our laws by state page. Not legal advice.
What matters
- Start with the battery: it is the part you can always use, in any state, in any apartment.
Watch out for
- Get landlord approval in writing before mounting anything outside.
Keep going
- Open the setup planner
- Fridge battery calculator
- Solar Panels for renters
- Battery for renters
- Inverters for renters
