Every rooftop PV system in Phoenix pulls an electrical and structural permit, so the city's filing feed is a near-complete, dated record of who is installing solar and where. For an installer, an EPC, or a solar equipment distributor, that is a market map that updates every day.
PermitGrab tracks 12,472 indexed permits in Phoenix, refreshed daily through June 16, 2026, with 1,824 filed in the last 30 days and 308 in the last 7 days. Inside that feed sits a focused solar layer.
Phoenix's Permit Mix and the Solar Layer
The last 30 days of Phoenix filings break down across both commercial and residential work:
- Fire protection — 579 permits. Sprinkler and life-safety systems, heavily commercial.
- General construction — 389 permits. Tenant improvements, additions, and remodels.
- Solar — 189 permits. Rooftop PV and battery-storage installs — the category that defines the Arizona market.
- HVAC — 142 permits. Cooling-driven changeouts, the constant in any desert market.
- Plumbing — 110 permits. Service and remodel work.
189 solar permits a month is a steady, addressable stream in a single metro — and the installers behind them are visible. PermitGrab tracks 2,192 contractor profiles in Phoenix with 1,065 carrying a verified phone number, a roughly 49% phone-coverage rate that makes the contractor side directly reachable.
Why Solar Permit Data Is Different
Unlike trades where some work goes unpermitted, grid-tied solar essentially cannot — the utility interconnection and inspection require it. That makes the Phoenix permit feed an unusually complete census of installations: who installed, at what address, on what date. Installers use it to spot competitor activity and saturation by neighborhood; equipment distributors use it to find the EPCs and installers gaining share; and roofing and electrical companies use it to find the homes adding load that may need adjacent work.
Who Should Work the Phoenix Solar Feed
Solar installers and EPCs use the daily PV filings to track competitor footprint and find service-area demand. Solar and battery-storage distributors use the high-volume contractor profiles to target the installers moving the most systems. Roofing companies watch solar filings for re-roof-before-install opportunities. And electrical contractors use the panel-upgrade overlap that PV installs frequently require.
What's in Every Phoenix Lead
Each permit carries the property address, the permit and work type, the trade category, the filing date, the status, and the contractor of record where available. Arizona's permit feed is paired with PermitGrab's contractor profiles and the property owner of record, so a dated solar or electrical job comes with a fast path to both the installer and the homeowner.
