Incentives from NY (NYSERDA and LIPA), NJ and CT generally pay about 40-50% of the installed cost of a solar electric system. Federal tax credits -- and a state tax credit for NY residents -- help reduce the cost even further. |
For solar domestic hot water systems, the federal tax credit can cover as much as 30% of the cost. For NY residents, the state tax credit can cover another 25% of the cost! |
Commercial solar installations receive substantial federal tax incentives, making for very impressive rates of returns: as high as 25%! |
Solar energy systems are being installed by the thousands on homes and businesses worldwide. Satisfy some -- or all -- of your own electric or domestic hot water needs from your own clean solar energy equipment. |
You will:
- Eliminate part (or all) of your electric bill for the next 30-40 years
- Watch your electric meter spin backwards during daylight hours!
- Enjoy a return on your investment of 5% to 15% every year, which will increase as utility rates continue to climb (commercial systems can see annual rates of return ranging from 12% to 25%).
- Eliminate most of your costs for your hot water heating (typically around 70-75%)
- Help combat Global Warming by reducing your CO2 emissions
