Your utility: Xcel Energy
Xcel's community lists name Ault for electric service. After we confirm the account, we file the Xcel interconnection paperwork and size the system to no more than 120% of what the home used over the last year, as Xcel requires.
Wind, hail and open roofs
Open-country wind is the main design load on the Weld plains. We use racking rated for it and check roof condition before we install.
Battery backup in Ault
Ault homes see strong sun and open-plains wind, two good reasons to pair solar with a battery. We're certified on Enphase, Tesla Powerwall, Franklin and EG4, whether you're adding storage now, later, or to an older system.
On an Xcel meter, a Tesla Powerwall or Enphase IQ battery can qualify for Renewable Battery Connect, which pays $250 per kW up to $5,000.

Ault solar installation FAQs
Who issues the solar permit for a home in Ault?
Inside Ault town limits, the town decides how solar and battery permits are reviewed. We find out which office handles it, submit the package and coordinate inspections.
Which utility serves Ault?
Xcel's community lists name Ault for electric service. Xcel's net metering credits extra daytime production against later use. We confirm your account, keep the design under Xcel's 120% cap and file the interconnection request.
Can I add a battery to solar in Ault later?
Yes, and it's a common plan. We note where a battery would go during the solar design and confirm the equipment will work with the brands we install.
How do you decide where panels go on an Ault home?
Plains towns in Weld County see some of the strongest summer hail in the state, so panel hail ratings and roof condition are part of every quote. Flat, open lots also make ground mounts an option for homes with room. We'll tell you plainly if solar doesn't make sense for your site.
