Frequently Asked Questions

We’re biased but yes. For most of our customers, solar makes sense and it is worth it. Most homeowners can save a significant amount both in the short term and the long term.

This is a hard question to answer because every situation is different. According to the SEIA.org, the average price per watt was $3.42 in 2023 and has dropped by more than 40% over the last decade. That means that the average system price in 2023 was roughly $25,000 before applying federal and local incentives. For most consumers applying the max incentives and financing their system, they’re going to see monthly savings on their energy bills very quickly.

Most solar panels come with a warranty of 25-30 years but they can last much longer than that.

No. Sadly, you can’t believe everything you see on the internet. And if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. For most of the sites claiming they’ll help you get solar panels for free from the government, they’re really talking about Federal Solar Tax Credit and we have a variety of videos explaining exactly how that works and what’s covered.

You may have heard someone mention this and the odds are they were talking about SREC’s, or Solar Renewable Energy Certificates. SRECs are a tradable commodity representing the environmental benefits of one megawatt-hour (MWh) of electricity generated from solar energy. More about SRECs

No. You don’t need to. But lots of our customers do. While not absolutely necessary, a battery can be a great way to protect against unforeseen power outages.

Three main criteria determine whether you qualify for the federal solar tax credit:

  • 1. You have to own the solar energy system. It doesn’t work if you’re leasing.
  • 2. You must install the solar panels on your primary or secondary residence.
  • 3. You must have taxable income.
