Southern California is known for its sunshine, but this June came with a surprise twist — thunderstorms, lightning, and even hail in some parts of LA. It’s a rare reminder that while the weather can be unpredictable, your energy bills don’t have to be.

With the summer solstice marking the longest day of the year — and peak solar generation potential — there's never been a better time to think about how you power your home. At US Power, we believe your energy plan shouldn’t depend on the mood of the weather. Solar gives you control — rain or shine.

What June’s Weird Weather Means for Your Power Bill

Let’s talk real life: when temperatures spike, so do your electricity costs. Your AC runs nonstop, your fridge works overtime, and your bill climbs higher every month. And now, extreme weather events — once rare in California summers — are becoming more common.

June’s hailstorms and lightning weren’t just bizarre — they were disruptive. Power flickered, outages hit neighborhoods, and utility rates keep going up. Meanwhile, solar homeowners stayed cool and powered up, with systems designed to handle both sunshine and stormy skies.

There’s No Such Thing as Too Much Sun — Especially for Your Wallet

The summer solstice is a powerful reminder: this season brings maximum sunlight, and that means maximum solar savings.

According to the Solar Energy Industries Association, the U.S. now produces enough solar power to run nearly 30 million homes — and that number’s only growing. Every day the sun shines is another chance to cut your bill and invest in energy independence.

When you install solar now, you’re locking in:

  • Peak summer performance
  • Increased net metering credits under California’s new rules
  • Long-term protection from utility rate hikes

Why Homeowners Are Switching to Solar Now

Beat the Heat with US Power— and Your Bill

This June brought sun, storms, and skyrocketing bills — a clear reminder that relying on the grid can leave you exposed to rising costs and unpredictable conditions. With solar, you gain stability, savings, and control, no matter what the weather throws your way.

The summer sun is at its strongest, and under California’s new solar rules, the sooner you act, the more you save. Don’t wait until your next electric bill shocks you — or the next heatwave hits.

No pressure. No upfront cost. Just a smarter way to power your home.
