Rate Hikes Just Hit. Take Back Control of Your Electric Bill.
Recent utility rate increases mean many Western Washington homeowners are paying more each month for the same electricity, with additional increases already planned or proposed in the years ahead. Solar helps you replace a portion of that rising utility power with energy you produce yourself, so you can reduce exposure to future rate hikes and gain more control over long-term energy costs.

Why Homeowners Should Act Now
A rate hike may look small on one bill, but it compounds over time and can add up to thousands more paid to the utility for the same usage. Every year you wait is another year of buying power at rising rates instead of investing in a system that can offset part of your usage with a more predictable long-term cost.

Here’s What Customers Have to Say About Our Solar Installation Process
Elizabeth Hernandez
“After getting 3 quotes to have solar panels installed, I went with Artisan. Jeff Bennett did such a thorough job of walking me through all the details, process and calculations to meet our energy needs. We replaced the roof first, and they connected with the roofing company directly to insure the proper decking was installed on the areas where the panels were being installed.”
MJ McDermott
“We had solar panels installed on our roof in July, and I have nothing but praise for Artisan Electric & Solar. First, Tom came out with a drone that he flew over our house to take photos so the placement of the panels could be designed.”
Glenn Space
“The Artisan Electric Team was outstanding from initial consult to final installation. They completed the project ahead of schedule and left the worksite as they found it! They even brought their own Porta-potty. Our Electric bill is now next to nothing! The system worked flawlessly during two power outages!”
Dmitry Alexeenko
