You're booked.
Thank you.
Here's what to expect before your SpartanX consultation — who you'll meet, how it works, and why more Michigan homeowners are locking in their power rate before DTE raises it again.
Your Appointment
Clear answers.
Real numbers.
Our visit is built around one question: does going solar actually make sense for your home? If the numbers work, we'll walk you through the program. If they don't, we'll tell you straight.
Rooftop Solar Assessment
Using satellite imagery, we measure your roof's sunlight hours and shading down to the square foot — so the design is built around your home, not a guess.
Custom Savings Review
We pull your real DTE usage and design a system sized to offset it — so you see exactly what you'd pay for power going forward vs. staying on the grid.
See If You Qualify
We'll review the federal tax credit, financing options, and program eligibility together — so by the end of the visit, you know whether it's a yes, a no, or a not-yet.
Why Homeowners Are Looking
The grid keeps
getting more expensive.
Michigan power bills aren't what they used to be — and they aren't going back. Here's the backdrop most homeowners are weighing before their consultation.
DTE Rates Keep Climbing
DTE has raised residential rates multiple times in recent years, with additional increases already approved. What you pay today is the cheapest it will be.
Grid Rates Are Unpredictable
Utility rates can change without your approval — driven by rate cases, fuel costs, and infrastructure upgrades. There's no cap, no notice, and no way to opt out.
Yes, Solar Works in Michigan
Modern panels produce on cloudy days, and Michigan's net metering banks summer overproduction to cover winter. Germany — cloudier than Michigan — leads the world in residential solar.
The math is simple:
You're going to pay for power for the rest of your life. The only question is whether you keep renting it from DTE at a rising rate — or lock in a fixed cost on your own roof while the federal tax credit is still on the table.
The Program
You use the power.
We own the panels.
SpartanX offers a Third-Party Ownership (TPO) Power Purchase Agreement — a simple way to go solar with $0 down. We install, own, insure, and maintain the system on your roof. You just pay for the clean power it produces, at a rate locked in well below DTE.
No loan, no lien, no out-of-pocket cost to start.
Your rate is based on your roof's sunlight hours — and fixed for the life of the agreement.
Monitoring, repairs, and a production guarantee — all on us.

Your cost vs. DTE — over 25 years
DTE residential rates have climbed an average of ~6.5% per year for the last decade. Your Solar PPA is locked at a fixed 2.99% annual escalator — no surprises, no rate cases.
Illustrative comparison based on DTE's average residential rate increases over the past decade and a fixed Solar PPA escalator of 2.99%. Your actual rate is determined during your in-home assessment based on roof sunlight hours and shading.
Tier-1 Equipment
Built for decades,
not seasons.
Premium all-black monocrystalline panels, micro-inverters with per-panel monitoring, and a 25-year warranty on equipment and workmanship. Same gear we'd put on our own homes.
Real People, Real Local
A team your neighbors already trust.
Every SpartanX installer is W-2, background-checked, and trained in-house. No subcontractors. No surprises. When we install your system, the people who built it are the people you can call.
From Our Neighbors
Smooth from start to finish.
"These guys know their stuff. System works so well it's fun — and it's saved me a bucket load every month."
"The crew was on time, clean, and respectful. No high-pressure sales — just clear numbers and honest answers."
"My DTE bill went from $240 to under $30. I should have called SpartanX years ago."
FAQ
Before we arrive
A few quick answers so you feel ready.
How long is the appointment?+
About 45–60 minutes. We respect your time — if you're in a hurry, just tell your rep.
What should I have ready?+
A recent DTE bill (paper or on your phone) and any decision-makers in the home. That's it — we handle the rest.
Does solar really work in Michigan?+
Yes. Panels generate on cloudy days, and net metering banks your summer surplus to offset winter usage. Michigan's program is one of the more favorable in the Midwest.
What does it cost to go solar?+
Most homeowners qualify for $0-down financing where the monthly payment is designed to be at or below their current DTE bill — plus the 30% federal tax credit. We'll walk through real numbers at the visit.
Is there any cost for the visit?+
Zero. The assessment, design, and quote are completely free — and there's no obligation to move forward.
