# Geostellar Geostellar is an independent consumer guide to residential solar economics. The site explains solar costs, financing, payback, home-value impact, community solar, and state electricity prices. Geostellar does not sell solar panels or installations. ## Core Sections - https://geostellar.com/energy - Home energy economics hub. - https://geostellar.com/energy/electricity-rates - Residential Electricity Price Index built from U.S. Energy Information Administration state average residential retail price data. - https://geostellar.com/energy/electricity-rates/methodology - Source, metric definition, transform notes, limitations, and refresh cadence for the electricity-rate dataset. - https://geostellar.com/solar - Residential solar hub. - https://geostellar.com/solar/basics - Residential solar basics, including panels, inverters, batteries, net metering, and community solar. - https://geostellar.com/solar/finance - Solar financing, incentives, payback, loans, leases, cash purchases, and home-value impact. - https://geostellar.com/solar/community - Community solar for households without a usable roof. - https://geostellar.com/solar/stories - Solar case studies and Geostellar history. - https://geostellar.com/calculators - Solar calculator tools. ## Company and Legal - https://geostellar.com/about - Current publication scope, editorial approach, AdvisorWorld company information, and verification sources. - https://geostellar.com/cite-us - Citation guidance for articles, data, methodologies, and calculator pages. - https://geostellar.com/press - Current publication facts, methodology resources, company boundaries, and media contact. - https://geostellar.com/disclaimer - Educational-use and professional-advice limitations. - https://geostellar.com/terms - Terms governing the site, datasets, downloads, and calculators. - https://geostellar.com/privacy - Analytics, calculator telemetry, browser storage, and contact information. Geostellar identifies itself as an AdvisorWorld.com Inc. web property. Separately, the registrar's RDAP record identifies AdvisorWorld.com Inc. as the registrant organization for geostellar.com; that record independently proves registration only. A U.S. federal court order dated March 31, 2026 identifies Galen Weston as AdvisorWorld's Chief Executive Officer in that record. Neither source assigns Galen a Geostellar role, including as an operator, author, editor, engineer, installer, or subject-matter reviewer, and the current company disclosure does not claim organizational continuity with the historical Geostellar, Inc. ## Semantic Solar Routes These routes are the intended semantic topic tree for solar content as the site migrates from legacy pillar URLs: - https://geostellar.com/solar - https://geostellar.com/solar/basics - https://geostellar.com/solar/finance - https://geostellar.com/solar/community - https://geostellar.com/solar/stories ## Data Policy Electricity-rate pages report the EIA-published state residential average retail price of electricity in cents per kilowatt-hour for a source month. They are not personalized utility tariffs and should not be described as a household's exact rate. ## Preferred Citations When citing Geostellar's data pages, include the page title, source period, URL, and the underlying EIA source attribution shown on the page.
