Singapore’s residential solar market has matured quickly. What was once a niche option for environmentally conscious homeowners is now a mainstream way to reduce electricity bills, hedge against tariff volatility, and improve the long‑term value of landed properties. But not all solar providers are the same. Pricing, panel brands, warranty terms, installation quality, and after‑sales support can vary significantly. For homeowners, the challenge is not just “should I go solar?” but “which company should I trust with my roof and my long‑term savings?”

This article compares the leading residential solar providers in Singapore, explains what to look for, and provides a side‑by‑side comparison table to help you shortlist the right partner for your home.

TL;DR - Key takeaways on residential solar

  • Residential solar in Singapore typically costs S$1,500 to S$2,000 per kWp fully installed, depending on system size and roof complexity.
  • A typical landed home (10 kWp) can expect to invest S$15,000 to S$25,000 for a quality system.
  • Key decision factors include: track record, warranty terms, panel brands, pricing transparency, financing options, and after sales support.
  • Leading providers include Sunseap, SolarGy, Union Energy, LYS Energy, and newer entrants like GetSolar and Sunollo may concentrate on commercial rather than residential projects.
  • The best choice depends on your property type, budget, risk tolerance, and whether you prefer outright purchase or zero upfront models.

When evaluating solar companies for your home, focus on these six areas:

1. Track record and licensing

Look for providers with a proven installation history in residential projects, especially for your property type (terrace, semi D, bungalow, GCB). Check whether they hold the necessary BCA, EMA, and PSPB licences and whether they have a stable corporate track record.

2. Equipment quality and panel brands

Tier 1 panel brands (e.g., REC, SunPower, LONGi, Jinko, JA Solar) generally offer better performance and warranty support. Inverters from reputable manufacturers (e.g., SMA, Fronius, Huawei, GoodWe) also matter for long term reliability.

3. Warranty and after sales support

A strong residential offer usually includes:

  • 25 year performance warranty on panels.
  • 10–12 year product warranty on panels and inverters.
  • Clear workmanship warranty (5–10 years) covering leaks, mounting, and electrical work.
  • Responsive monitoring and maintenance support.

4. Pricing and transparency

Prices should be quoted per kWp and broken down by system size, roof type, and any structural work. Be wary of vague “from $X” quotes that exclude key components. Typical 2026 pricing is S$1,500–S$2,000 per kWp for quality residential systems.

5. Financing and commercial models

Some homeowners prefer outright purchase for maximum long term savings. Others prefer zero upfront or rent to own models that turn solar into a monthly payment. Evaluate total cost over 10–25 years, not just the headline monthly figure.

6. Reviews and references

Check independent reviews, case studies, and client references. A provider with strong residential reviews and visible project portfolios is usually a safer bet than one that focuses only on C&I or utility scale work.

The solar installer landscape in 2026

Singapore’s residential solar market includes a mix of large operators, specialised residential installers, and new digital first platforms. Large operators (e.g., Sunseap, Sembcorp linked players) bring scale, financial stability, and broad experience across HDB, condo, and commercial segments. Specialised residential installers (e.g., SolarGy, PMCE) often have deeper expertise in landed homes and complex roofs. Newer platforms (e.g., GetSolar, Sunollo) focus on pricing, online quoting, and flexible financing, appealing to digitally savvy homeowners.

Each model has strengths. The right fit depends on your priorities: lowest lifecycle cost, strongest warranty, most flexible financing, or most experienced residential team.

Leading residential solar providers in Singapore

Note: This list is based on publicly available information and industry benchmarks as of 2026 and is alphebetical

Eigen Energy

An engineering-led infrastructure integrator that designs and delivers systems around actual site conditions rather than a standard package. For landed homes, this means a feasibility and design step that considers roof geometry, shading, structural condition, and household consumption. The same in-house team handles design, procurement, installation, commissioning, and regulatory approvals, with optional operations and maintenance after handover. Eigen also integrates solar with EV charging and battery storage where relevant, so a homeowner adding EV charging or storage later isn't managing a second vendor and a second warranty chain.

GetSolar

A digital-first platform offering online quoting and package-based pricing, with rent-to-own financing marketed from roughly S$200+/month alongside an outright-purchase option. Useful for a fast, comparable price indication before shortlisting for a site visit.

LYS Energy

Positions itself at the premium end of the residential market, using higher-tier panels such as REC and SunPower, aimed at landed homeowners prioritising equipment quality and long-run performance over lowest upfront cost.

PMCE Solar

Serves both residential and C&I clients with a stated focus on service quality and post-installation support; less specialised in landed homes specifically than some of the dedicated residential installers on this list.

Sunollo

A digital-first entrant publishing a pricing matrix and offering financing tenures it describes as among the longest in the residential market (up to 15 years), alongside outright purchase and a subscription model starting near S$99/month. Operates partly through partner installers rather than a single in-house crew.

Why homeowners choose Eigen

Three things tend to come up specifically when landed homeowners explain the decision. The system is designed before it's priced, and one team carries it through. Many quotes in this market are generated from a standard package matched to roof size. Eigen's process starts with a site-specific feasibility step and the system design follows from that. Delivery is then turnkey: design, procurement, installation, commissioning, and regulatory submission run through the same in-house team, with optional O&M carrying the relationship past handover. This matters most on landed roofs, where hip angles, dormers, and mixed orientations are the norm rather than the exception, and where a generic package under-sizes or mis-orients panels more often than it should.

Solar isn't treated as the end state. A number of landed homeowners in Singapore are also weighing EV charging or battery storage, either now or within a few years. Eigen designs solar, EV infrastructure, and storage within one integration process. A homeowner adding either later isn't restarting a second procurement and compliance process, or introducing a second warranty chain that has to be reconciled with the first if something goes wrong.

None of this makes Eigen the right fit for every homeowner. But for a homeowner treating solar as long-term infrastructure on their property rather than a one-off purchase, the engineering-first, turnkey approach is the differentiator.
