About this service area

Solar in Woodcrest, specifically

Woodcrest is an unincorporated community just south of our Riverside office, served by Riverside Public Utilities. RPU is a city-owned municipal utility with its own net metering program, rate schedules, and interconnection process — none of which follow the Southern California Edison tariffs that apply in neighboring communities. Woodcrest lots also run large, so solar array siting has more options than a typical tract roof.

What matters here

What Woodcrest homeowners should know

Served by RPU, not SCE

Riverside Public Utilities runs its own net metering program and rate schedules. We size and interconnect Woodcrest solar panel systems to RPU rules, which differ from the SCE tariffs a few miles away.

Riverside County solar permitting

Woodcrest is unincorporated, so building permits run through Riverside County while the interconnection application goes to RPU. We handle both ends of that.

Large lots, flexible solar siting

Semi-rural parcels give more freedom in solar array placement, including ground mounts where roof orientation or shading would cap production.

Equity programs rarely apply

Woodcrest generally sits outside disadvantaged-community census tracts, so DAC-SASH and SGIP equity tiers usually do not apply. We confirm the tract for your address regardless.

On the ground in Woodcrest

Woodcrest is growing — here’s where

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

Woodcrest Retail Center ("Veil Centre") — CEQA scoping underway

Riverside County is processing a roughly 61,020-square-foot retail and restaurant project — a Stater Brothers-anchored shopping center referred to locally as the "Woodcrest Veil Centre" — on 9.42 gross acres at Van Buren Boulevard and Washington Street, requiring a general plan amendment and zoning change from agricultural to commercial.

“There's no formal action being taken on this item today. The hearing is simply to "kick off the EIR process" before having to come back through the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors for formal action.”

Why it matters: New commercial square footage in a growing unincorporated corridor signals rising local energy demand and an emerging market for commercial solar and battery installs as the retail center gets built out.

Van Buren Boulevard sewer expansion unlocks business development

Riverside County finalized funding — an additional $3.5 million from the Riverside County Flood Control District — to complete a 2.5-mile sewer expansion along Van Buren Boulevard in Woodcrest, replacing septic systems and clearing the way for new business development in the unincorporated area.

“We have several interested business operators who eagerly want to start business in this area, but they haven't been able to get started without sewer... If we build this sewer system, they will come.”

Why it matters: Infrastructure like sewer capacity is often the gating factor for new commercial construction — once it's in place, Woodcrest becomes viable for new commercial buildings that are strong candidates for solar and battery installation from day one.
