SunScoutWhat solar actually costs at your address.
Florida

Solar, priced before the salesman sits down.

Every solar pitch starts with a number the company chose. SunScout starts with yours: NREL's production model for your actual address, your bill, and the honest math — system size, cost range, payback — plus the installers near you with their live ratings, shown as data, not a recommendation.

Live estimator — NREL model

Your address, modeled.

Why this exists

The model is public. The markup isn't.

Production for your address is a solved problem — NREL's PVWatts has modeled it from typical-year weather for decades, free. What varies threefold is what companies charge on top and what a 25-year escalator lease really costs. SunScout puts the public numbers on the table first.

How it works

Model first, quotes second, signatures last.

01

Estimate from the public model

ZIP, bill, roof. NREL PVWatts sizes the system and prices the range. Installers near you appear with live ratings.

02

Decode the paper

Paste any quote, lease or PPA. Free tier flags the big-ticket lines; every escalator gets compounded out loud.

03

Sign with the sheet

On a paid plan: the installer meeting sheet, the two-quote comparison, and the lease-vs-cash math over 25 years.

Plans

The model is free. The paper fight is $19.

Buyer: homeowners with a solar pitch on the kitchen table. Channel: FL solar FB groups, r/solar, Nextdoor — plus the installer plan for companies that would rather sell against honest math.
