Our Story

From California's solar boom to Houston's energy frontier.

Sunstream Solar Energy got its start over 17 years ago during California's early solar expansion, where our team learned the discipline of engineering systems for one of the most demanding, tightly regulated solar markets in the country.

We brought that experience home to Texas, relocating our operations to Houston to serve the state's fast-growing residential and commercial market. Today, Sunstream operates as a true Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) company — we design the system, source the equipment, and build the installation ourselves, with no subcontracted middle layer between you and your energy system.

CALIFORNIA HOUSTON, TX — HQ
What We Build

Full-service solar, for every kind of property.

As a complete EPC provider, Sunstream handles engineering, permitting, procurement, and construction under one roof — for single-family homes, multi-family properties, and commercial rooftops alike.

Residential Solar

Custom-designed rooftop systems sized to your household's actual usage — built for Texas heat, Texas storms, and Texas utility rates.

Commercial & Multi-Family

Rooftop and ground-mount arrays engineered for offices, warehouses, retail, and multi-family properties, with ROI modeled into every proposal.

Battery Storage

Lithium-ion battery systems that store your excess solar production for use at night, during outages, or when grid rates spike.

Smart Home Automation

Connected energy management that automates how your home generates, stores, and uses power — with mobile monitoring built in.

System Architecture — 01

Central Inverter Systems

A single high-capacity inverter (SMA Sunny Boy) converts DC power from the full array to usable AC power. This architecture is efficient and cost-effective for larger, unshaded roof and ground-mount arrays where all panels perform under similar conditions.

System Architecture — 02

Microinverter Systems

Enphase and APsystems microinverters convert power at each individual panel, so shading, roof orientation, or one underperforming panel never drags down the rest of the array. Ideal for complex rooflines and mixed sun exposure.

Equipment We Install

We build with proven, bankable brands — not whatever's cheapest that week.

Sunstream is equipment-agnostic by design: we specify the manufacturer that fits your roof, your budget, and your goals, and procure it directly as your EPC.

SMA Sunny Boy
Central String Inverters

German-engineered central inverters built for high-efficiency conversion on larger residential and commercial arrays.

Enphase.
Microinverter Systems

Panel-level power conversion and monitoring, with industry-leading warranty coverage and app-based system visibility.

APsystems
Microinverter Systems

Multi-panel microinverter technology that reduces the number of components on the roof without sacrificing performance.

Q CELLS
Solar Panels

High-efficiency monocrystalline modules engineered for durability in extreme heat, hail, and Texas weather cycles.

Battery Storage

Solar alone isn't the finish line anymore.

The industry now calls this the "solar-plus-storage" era — where the panels are only half of a complete energy system. Pairing solar with battery storage is what actually turns a rooftop array into a resilient, always-on power source.

01

Energy independence

Store the extra power your panels produce during the day and use it after sunset, instead of selling it back to the grid at a fraction of its value.

02

Lower utility costs

Your battery can draw from stored reserves during peak-rate hours, helping you avoid the highest-priced electricity on your utility's schedule.

03

Real resilience for Texas grids

With Texas's grid facing more frequent strain, a properly sized battery keeps essential circuits running through outages — no generator, no gas, no noise.

Smart Home Automation

Your system should manage itself.

A Sunstream automation package connects your panels, battery, and smart electrical panel into one intelligent system — one that makes decisions about your power in real time, so you don't have to think about it.

Weather-aware charging

Automation software factors in the local forecast to decide whether to bank power for a cloudy stretch ahead or export surplus to the grid today.

Smart load management

During an outage, a smart panel keeps essential circuits — refrigeration, HVAC, medical equipment — running first, and sheds non-essential loads automatically.

Virtual power plant ready

Enroll your battery in a virtual power plant program to share stored power with the grid during peak demand — and get paid or credited for it.

Our Process

One team, four stages, zero handoffs.

Because Sunstream is a full EPC company, the same team that designs your system also builds it — nothing gets lost between contractors.

01

Design & Engineering

Site assessment, load analysis, and a system design matched to your roof, usage, and budget.

02

Procurement

We source panels, inverters, and batteries directly from manufacturers — SMA, Enphase, APsystems, Q CELLS.

03

Construction

Our own installation crews handle mounting, wiring, and battery integration from start to finish.

04

Interconnection & Activation

Utility interconnection, inspection, and system activation — then we hand you a fully monitored, live system.
