Custom residential solar designed around your home

Every residential solar installation begins with understanding your electricity use and the goals you have for your home. We then design the system around the available sunlight and roof conditions whether your property has a flat stucco roof or a pitched roof or needs a ground mounted solar array.

BT Energy selects the equipment and system size with long term ownership in mind so your New Mexico solar system fits your property and household from the beginning.

Common questions

FAQ

How much will solar save me?

It depends on your usage, rate plan, roof, and system size. Our calculator gives a rough idea; your free quote includes a personalized estimate.

Will solar work on my flat roof?

Yes, flat roofs are common in New Mexico and well suited to solar. We use mounting designed for flat roofs and review your roof's condition during the site visit.

Will my panels work during a power outage?

Standard grid-tied solar shuts off during an outage for safety. To keep power on, you need a battery system configured for backup.

Are there incentives available?

Incentives change over time and depend on your situation. We'll review what currently applies to you, and we recommend confirming tax questions with a tax professional.

“I recently had a great experience with BT Energy and wanted to share how impressed I was with their team. From the beginning, Neil stood out with his knowledgeable and professional approach. He didn’t just try to sell me solar — he really took the time to educate me on how the system works, what the benefits are, and what to realistically expect. It made the whole process feel transparent and comfortable. That guy really loves what he does. One of the things that gave me the most confidence in BT Energy was learning that their installer is also a certified roofer. The thought of having intrusive work done on my newer roof was a big hangup for me, so this helped me get over that. Overall, the experience felt honest, professional, and well-informed from start to finish. If you’re considering residential solar, I’d definitely recommend giving BT Energy a call.”

“Neil and Derek at BT Energy took excellent care of me when my original solar company left me partially installed! Extremely good communication throughout the entire process of getting my solar commissioned and generating! I hope not to need more services; however, if and when the time comes, I will absolutely be using BT Energy. Highly recommend working with them.”
