Going solar in Avon
Avon is the Eagle Valley town at the base of Beaver Creek, along I-70 between Vail and Edwards. Most of its housing is attached or multi-unit; detached houses are a minority. The Census Bureau's 2020–2024 estimates show about 5,900 residents in Avon; only about 50% of homes are owner-occupied, and about 20% are detached houses.
Avon is an incorporated town, so it sets its own permit process; some small Colorado towns handle building review in house and others contract it out. We confirm the issuing office for your address and file the solar and electrical permits for you.
Your utility: Holy Cross Energy
Holy Cross Energy, the member-owned electric co-op for the Eagle and Roaring Fork valleys, serves Avon. That means Xcel's battery rebates don't apply. We follow Holy Cross's interconnection process and check what member programs it currently offers before we quote.
Snow loads and HOA review
Eagle County roofs carry real snow loads, and many neighborhoods have design review boards. We get the structural engineer's snow-load requirement for the address, keep panels clear of snow-shedding paths over doors and decks, and prepare HOA submittals when needed.
Battery backup in Avon
Avon owners in townhomes and condos usually need HOA approval for solar or a battery, so we start with what the association allows. Our crews are certified on Enphase, Tesla Powerwall, Franklin and EG4; adding a battery to an existing system is a common job for us.
Xcel's battery rebates don't apply to Holy Cross Energy meters.

Avon solar installation FAQs
Who issues the solar permit for a home in Avon?
Because Avon is incorporated, the permit comes from the town or the building official it designates rather than straight from Eagle County. We confirm which office handles your address before we file.
Which utility serves Avon?
Avon is Holy Cross Energy territory. Holy Cross runs its own interconnection review and member programs, so we work from its current rules, not Xcel's.
Can I add a battery to solar in Avon later?
You can. If you're thinking about storage, tell us at the start and we'll pick an inverter and layout that make adding a battery simple.
Do you offer ground mounts in Avon?
Snow, steep roofs and HOA design rules matter more in the Eagle Valley than almost anywhere in Colorado. We design flush-mounted arrays that meet association guidelines and use racking rated for the engineered snow load. We'll tell you plainly if solar doesn't make sense for your site.
