About this service area

Solar in Lake Arrowhead, specifically

Lake Arrowhead is an unincorporated mountain resort community in the San Bernardino Mountains, surrounded by the San Bernardino National Forest and served by Southern California Edison (SCE) under the NEM 3.0 Solar Billing Plan. Tourism drives the local economy, with over four million annual visitors and more than 1,600 guest accommodations around the reservoir, alongside full-time mountain residents facing wildfire-season power shutoffs. Solar permitting here runs through San Bernardino County, not a city building department.

SCE territory — NEM 3.0 Solar Billing Plan

Lake Arrowhead is served by Southern California Edison, so new solar customers are enrolled in the Solar Billing Plan (NEM 3.0). Battery storage is especially valuable here given the area's exposure to wildfire-season Public Safety Power Shutoffs at elevation.

Mountain resort economy, forest setting

Surrounded by the San Bernardino National Forest at over 5,100 feet elevation, Lake Arrowhead's economy runs on tourism — lodging, dining, and over 1,200 vacation rentals — with a mix of full-time residents and part-time cabin owners who value backup power for remote mountain properties.

Equity-program coverage varies by tract

DAC-SASH eligibility in the Lake Arrowhead area depends on the specific census tract's CalEnviroScreen ranking. SolarCCS verifies eligibility per address rather than assuming coverage.

San Bernardino County permitting, not "City of"

Lake Arrowhead is unincorporated, so solar permits go through San Bernardino County Building and Safety (EZ Online Permitting), which may also require fire department and geotechnical review given the forested terrain. SolarCCS manages the full county permit and SCE interconnection process.

On the ground in Lake Arrowhead

Lake Arrowhead is growing — here’s where

Recent development shaping Lake Arrowhead — and where new rooftops and commercial growth are creating solar and storage opportunities.

Lake Arrowhead Village launches multi-phase renovation

Lake Arrowhead Village, the community's central shopping and dining destination, began a 2025 renovation program covering common areas, building exteriors, parking structures, and a new lakefront concert venue.

“Lake Arrowhead Village, the beloved shopping, dining, and entertainment destination nestled in the scenic San Bernardino Mountains, is proud to announce an exciting series of renovations and upgrades launching in late April 2025.”

Why it matters: Major renovation investment in the Village's commercial core signals opportunity for solar and battery storage upgrades tied to building improvements in Lake Arrowhead's tourism economy.

AWAC loses architectural oversight of 24 Arrowhead Woods tracts

All 24 Arrowhead Woods tracts with CC&Rs set to expire on December 31, 2025 failed to secure the required approval for renewal, meaning the Arrowhead Woods Architectural Committee (AWAC) no longer has authority over properties in those areas — homeowners will now make property-related decisions without AWAC permit requirements.

“An examination of documents released by the Arrowhead Woods Architectural Committee (AWAC) reveals that all 24 Arrowhead Woods tracts with CC&Rs set to expire on December 31, 2025, failed to secure the required approval for renewal. With the renewal effort failing across all affected tracts, AWAC will no longer have the authority it claimed over properties in those areas.”

Why it matters: The expiration of AWAC's CC&R authority in 24 tracts means San Bernardino County is now the sole permitting authority for construction and solar installations in those areas — simplifying the solar permit path for homeowners who previously faced dual AWAC + county review.
