Residential Solar & Battery Systems
Little Rock homeowners are paying a regulated monopoly with no competitive alternative—and Entergy keeps filing for more. A properly sized solar system reduces your monthly Entergy bill from $150–$250 to the $12–$15 minimum connection charge, saving $1,600–$2,800+ annually at today's rates. Those savings grow with every Entergy rate increase, while your solar generation cost stays locked at 5–8 cents per kWh for 25+ years.
Little Rock's residential architecture is varied: the charming 1920s–1950s homes in the Heights and Hillcrest with steep-pitch roofs and mature tree canopy, the spacious contemporary homes in West Little Rock's Chenal Valley and Pleasant Valley with excellent south-facing exposure, the established ranch and split-level neighborhoods across central and southwest Little Rock, and the newer developments in Maumelle and the expanding western corridors. Enphase IQ8+ microinverters are the primary recommendation for Little Rock's older neighborhoods—the Heights, Hillcrest, and Stifft Station—where mature oak and hardwood canopy creates significant partial shading requiring panel-level optimization. For newer homes in West Little Rock, Chenal Valley, and Pleasant Valley with clean, open roof planes, SolarEdge string inverters with power optimizers deliver excellent production at competitive cost. Battery storage is strongly recommended in Central Arkansas—Entergy's grid vulnerability to severe weather makes a Powerwall or equivalent genuinely practical for a metro that experiences multiple significant outages annually.
Average Little Rock installation: 8–10 kW system producing 10,400–15,000 kWh annually—enough to offset 70–90% of typical household consumption, including the summer AC load that drives most of the savings.

Contractors & Installers
PowerLink Partner Program
Arkansas's solar market is growing—and Little Rock is the center of it. As the state capital, the largest metro, and the crossroads of I-30 and I-40, Little Rock is where the contractor pipeline is deepest: established homes in the Heights and Hillcrest retrofitting as Entergy rates rise, new construction in West Little Rock designing solar in from the start, commercial operations across the I-30 corridor converting rooftops to revenue, and the broader Central Arkansas market from Conway to Benton to Cabot generating sustained demand.
PowerLink partners receive bulk pricing on panels rated for Arkansas's combined heat, humidity, wind, and hail conditions; priority inventory allocation during the installation season; same-day quotes; and technical support for Entergy Arkansas interconnection applications and Arkansas-specific code requirements. Materials arrive at Little Rock job sites within days via the I-30/I-40 corridor—the same logistics infrastructure that makes Little Rock a national distribution hub also makes it an efficient delivery destination. PowerLink's 48-hour shipping keeps your install calendar full across Pulaski County and Central Arkansas.

Commercial & Institutional
Solar for Little Rock's Capital City Economy
Little Rock's economy is anchored by state government, healthcare, logistics, financial services, and the commercial infrastructure supporting a 750,000-person metro. UAMS Medical Center, Baptist Health, CHI St. Vincent, Arkansas Children's Hospital, and the broader healthcare sector consume enormous electricity—24/7 facilities with intensive HVAC, medical equipment, and data center loads driving massive Entergy bills with punishing demand charges. State government buildings, corporate headquarters (Dillard's, Stephens Inc., Windstream), I-30/I-40 corridor logistics operations, and retail along Chenal Parkway, Cantrell Road, and Markham Street all share the same challenge: significant electricity consumption with Entergy's monopoly rates.
Commercial solar benefits from strong economics: 5.0 peak sun hours drives high production, summer peak generation aligns with peak cooling demand, the 30% ITC and MACRS recover 50–60% within five years, and Arkansas's property tax exemption protects the investment. For healthcare and logistics facilities where power continuity is critical, commercial battery storage provides both demand charge management (often the single largest savings) and essential backup during Central Arkansas's frequent severe weather outages.

Utilities & Developers
Grid-Scale & Community Solar
Arkansas's solar development landscape is evolving, with growing interest in community solar, utility-scale projects, and corporate renewable energy procurement. Central Arkansas's combination of available land, strong irradiance, established Entergy interconnection infrastructure, and a large metro subscriber base creates development potential for community solar projects serving the many Little Rock residents who can't install rooftop systems—renters, apartment dwellers, and homes with insufficient roof exposure.
PES supplies commercial-grade panels rated for Arkansas's heat, humidity, wind, and hail; utility-scale inverters; transformer equipment; large-format battery storage; and grid interconnection hardware meeting Entergy Arkansas and FERC specifications. Our logistics team coordinates phased delivery via the I-30/I-40 corridor—one of the most efficient freight crossroads in the central United States.
