On a balcony railing, a patio stand, or in the yard — wherever the sun hits.

Tracking California SB 868
Governor Newsom signed SB 868 on September 30, 2026. Starting January 1, 2027, Californians can plug in certified solar systems up to 1,200 W that send power back to the grid, with no utility interconnection agreement, approval or fees. Certified kits may take time to reach stores after that. You don't have to wait: with the APmeter zero-export smart meter, your system keeps its power in your home and nothing is sent back to the grid.
