How to choose a solar installer in New Mexico

Check licensing & certification

Solar installs in New Mexico involve electrical work, so the contractor (or their electrician) needs the proper state license. Favor companies with NABCEP-certified staff, the industry's recognized credential, and confirm they carry liability insurance and a workmanship warranty, not just the manufacturer's panel warranty.

Get three quotes and compare price per watt

Quotes vary widely. Compare the total cash price divided by system size (dollars per watt) rather than the monthly financed payment, which can hide markups. Make sure each quote lists the same panel and inverter brands, the production estimate, and exactly what's included.

Confirm permits, interconnection & net metering

A reputable installer pulls the building/electrical permits and files the utility interconnection paperwork for you. Ask how net metering works with your local New Mexico utility: it determines how much credit you earn for excess power you send back to the grid, which drives your real savings.

What to know before hiring in New Mexico

The largest utilities serving New Mexico homes are Public Service Co of NM (492,945 residential customers, 15.6¢/kWh), Southwestern Public Service (100,540 residential customers, 12.0¢/kWh) and El Paso Electric (94,760 residential customers, 10.2¢/kWh). Your utility sets the rate your solar production offsets, and it is also who an installer files interconnection or service paperwork with, so name it when you ask for quotes.

Check the license before you sign

Electrical contractors in New Mexico are licensed by the New Mexico Regulation and Licensing Department, Construction Industries Division. Electrical contractor licenses (EE-98) and journeyman certificates (EE-98J).
