Why Solar in
Pueblo?

Pueblo sits at the confluence of Fountain Creek and the Arkansas River at 4,692 feet — one of the sunniest cities in Colorado with 300+ days of sunshine each year. That's more annual solar irradiance than most of Texas. Whether you're on Xcel Energy's grid and want to slash your bill with net metering, or you own rural property outside Pueblo West or Beulah looking for full energy independence, SolarOps designs systems sized for your actual usage.

Solar energy payback periods in southern Colorado typically run 7–10 years on a 25-year panel warranty. After that, you're generating free electricity. With the federal 30% Investment Tax Credit still in full effect through 2032 and Colorado's additional state programs, there has never been a better time to go solar in Pueblo.

SolarOps is based 30 minutes from Pueblo West, Beulah, Colorado City in Silver Cliff, CO. We're not a national franchise shipping in crews from Denver — we're your neighbors, and we stand behind our work long after the installation is complete.
