Why 512
Owner-led, and still here in ten years.
Texas has no shortage of solar companies that sold hard, installed fast, and closed. We built this company to be the one you can still call.
The same crews, job after job
We are not a sales office that hands your job to whoever bid lowest this week. We install with crews we have worked with for years — they hold to our standards because they have been holding to them a long time.
Designed for the building
Sleek, high-grade materials chosen to complement the house rather than fight it. How the array reads from the street is a design constraint, not an afterthought.
Entirely upgradable
Add capacity or storage later without tearing out what you already bought.
We service what others abandoned
We repair systems we didn't install, on any manufacturer — including brands other companies won't touch.
How it goes
Six steps, one point of contact.
You will know what happens next at every stage. That is the whole promise.
- 01
Consultation
We look at your usage, your roof, and your goals, and tell you whether solar actually pencils out for you.
- 02
Design
You get an array layout, a production model, and a number. No pressure to sign in the room.
- 03
Permitting
We file the city permit and the utility interconnection application and track them to approval.
- 04
Installation
The install is handled by crews we have worked with for years. Most residential systems are on and off your roof quickly.
- 05
Inspection
City inspection and utility permission to operate. We meet the inspector; you don't have to.
- 06
Monitoring
Production reporting is set up and handed over, and we stay available for the life of the system.
$4,000
Austin Energy residential rebate, raised July 2026
Rebates & incentives
There is still real money in this. Just not where it used to be.
Austin Energy raised its rebate by 60% this year, while the federal credit for homeowners ended in January. We will tell you exactly which incentives you qualify for before you sign anything.
We service every manufacturer
- Enphase
- SolarEdge
- Tesla
- SMA
- Power-One
- Fronius
These are just the ones we're asked about most. If it's on your roof, we can work on it — including brands that no longer exist.
What customers say
New installs, upgrades, and rescues.
Some of these customers came to us for a new system. Others came because the company that built theirs disappeared. Both kinds are here.
The installation process was fast and smooth, with good communication throughout. Both Jen and Austin were easy to work with. They provided numerous follow-ups to make sure we did not have problems. The system ended up producing more power than expected. Very happy with the results. Highly recommended.

I highly recommend 512 Solar. Their response time was amazing. Aiden was able to identify why my panels were no longer producing power with the make/model and serial number of my inverter, no on-site visit needed. Aiden found that the inverter was still under warranty, was able to order the replacement and have it shipped to my home. The quote for installation was very reasonable, scheduling was quick and our panels were up and producing within a day or two.

Great upgrade!! Wonderful team to work with… 512 never pushed features or upgrades, yet we quickly realized that new tech and current rebates made it a good time to double production…
