Our Team’s Experience with Detroit

Headquartered in Detroit, our team brings deep experience working with Detroit’s diverse range of properties, from historic homes to modern commercial buildings. We understand the unique energy demands created by Detroit’s climate—humid summers, snowy winters—and how they affect solar system design and performance.

Permits for Solar in Detroit

Solar panel installations in Detroit typically require electrical permits and sometimes building permits, depending on the type of system being installed. Our team is very familiar with the permit requirements for Detroit and we manage the entire permitting process on your behalf, ensuring compliance with all city and state requirements.

Net Metering for Detroit Homeowners

Detroit residents who install solar systems are eligible to participate in DTE Energy’s distributed generation (net metering) programs. This allows you to receive credits for excess energy your solar panels produce, helping to further lower your monthly utility bills.

Featured Solar Projects in Detroit

At Strawberry Solar, we’re proud to contribute to some of Detroit’s most forward-thinking sustainable housing and commercial redevelopment projects. Our installations support local initiatives that prioritize energy efficiency, community empowerment, and long-term resilience. Here are just a few of the Detroit-based projects we’ve helped power with clean energy:

Cass Community Tiny Homes

We partnered with Cass Community Social Services to install solar panels on multiple units in Detroit’s first Tiny Homes neighborhood. This groundbreaking project provides affordable, sustainable housing for low-income residents while reducing long-term utility costs and environmental impact.

Green Garage Detroit

Located in Midtown, the Green Garage is a shining example of sustainable commercial redevelopment. We were honored to contribute solar expertise to a building that now serves as a green business incubator, helping to shape Detroit’s clean energy economy.

El Moore Lodge

The beautifully restored El Moore urban lodge blends historic charm with modern sustainability. Strawberry Solar worked alongside the developers to design a solar solution that supports El Moore’s sustainable energy goals while enhancing its eco-conscious urban living model.

EcoHomes Detroit

EcoHomes is reimagining the future of Detroit housing through net-zero design and energy-positive construction. Our team helped bring solar to their model homes—showcasing how solar energy can be integrated into efficient, affordable, and aesthetically modern homes right here in the city.

“Did a great job with my solar install and at a great price. Met all expectations and more. They were always communicating well and keeping me in the loop about the project timeline. If you’re thinking about going solar, definitely consider this company!”

Jason B.

“I had Strawberry Solar install a 12 kW system this summer. I could not be more pleased and satisfied with how it has gone so far. The output is right about where it was promised it would be. The app/software that monitors the system is easy to use. The salesman did not push hard and let his product do the selling. We actually installed a slightly less expensive panel because it didn’t make sense for my situation. It was his idea. The installers were great and professional. No concerns at all.”
