Solar panel installation in Lubbock, TX
Pure Solar installs residential solar across Lubbock and the South Plains. Lubbock sees roughly 5.6 peak sun hours a day — among the best in the country — and most homes here fit a 7 to 10 kW rooftop system tied into Lubbock Power & Light or South Plains Electric Co-op.
The South Plains gets some of the best sun in the country. Our Lubbock crew designs hail-rated systems built for West Texas wind, dust, and 100-degree summers.

Roofs and weather in Lubbock
The South Plains combine intense sun with high wind and hail. We spec hail-rated modules and engineer racking to West Texas wind loads, and we account for blowing dust, which is the main reason production drops here if a system is never cleaned.
Permitting and interconnection
Lubbock Power & Light and South Plains Electric Co-op each run their own distributed generation application. We prepare the one-line diagram, submit the application, schedule the city inspection, and coordinate the meter exchange so you are not chasing paperwork.

Lubbock solar questions
How much sun does Lubbock actually get for solar?
About 5.6 peak sun hours per day on average, which is one of the strongest solar resources in Texas. That means a Lubbock system produces more per panel than the same system in Houston.
Will hail damage solar panels in Lubbock?
The panels we install are tested to withstand 1-inch hail at 50 mph, the same standard used across hail-prone West Texas. Panels are also usually covered under your homeowners policy once installed.
Does Lubbock Power & Light allow rooftop solar?
Yes. LP&L accepts residential distributed generation interconnections. We file the application and handle the inspection and meter swap on your behalf.
How long does a Lubbock solar install take?
Most Lubbock projects run 6 to 12 weeks from signed agreement to permission to operate, with the rooftop work itself finishing in one to two days.
