BEPS: the Beaverton permit route
Beaverton runs permits through its Beaverton Electronic Permitting System, an online portal open around the clock. The Building Division reviews building, plumbing, mechanical, and electrical permits and does the inspections in the same office, so a solar job stays with one city department. We submit through the portal for you.
Hills, neighborhoods, and roof exposure
Beaverton sits on the eastern edge of the Tualatin Valley, with elevation inside the city running from about 132 to 698 feet. That range matters for solar, because a hillside lot can face open sky that a flat lot behind tall trees cannot. The city is divided into 13 neighborhoods, each with its own Neighborhood Association Committee.
The median Beaverton home was built in 1987, and about half of occupied homes (50.5 percent) are owner-occupied (Census ACS 2020-2024). With that many renters, we always confirm who owns the roof before design starts.
Beaverton and PGE
The city clean-energy page refers to Beaverton customers buying renewable energy products from PGE. The page does not map the territory, so check your bill for the utility name at your address. For solar, PGE takes interconnection applications online through PowerClerk, and Energy Trust of Oregon solar incentives are open to Oregon customers of PGE or Pacific Power.
