Get Solar

Actual costs for a solar hot water or solar electric system will vary depending on size, ease of installation, type of equipment, etc. However, residential solar hot water systems usually range from $7,000 to $12,000, before applying the 30% Federal Tax Credit and any State and utility rebates that may be available. Solar electric systems are usually priced in dollars per watt of installed power, with a range of $4.50 to $5.50 per watt before incentives. Of course, larger commercial systems will almost always have a lower price per watt.
