Rooftop Solar

Rooftop solar lets homeowners generate their own electricity, lower energy costs, and reduce their carbon footprint—all while increasing home value. By installing solar panels on your roof, you can power your home with the sun, receive state and federal incentives, and even sell excess electricity back to the grid.


How Does Rooftop Solar Work?

  1. Solar Panels Capture Sunlight – Panels on your roof convert sunlight into electricity.
  2. Power Your Home – The electricity runs your home’s appliances, lights, and more.
  3. Store or Sell Excess Energy – Use a battery to store solar power for later or send extra energy to the utility grid for bill credits (Net Metering).

With high-efficiency panels and new incentives, solar has never been more affordable or accessible in Massachusetts!


Who Can Install Rooftop Solar?

Rooftop solar is ideal for:
1. Homeowners with a sunny roof (South-facing roofs are best, but East/West also work).
2. Those who want energy security with battery storage options.
3. People looking to reduce long-term electricity costs.
4. Homeowners with high energy bills who want more control over costs.


How to Install Rooftop Solar

Step 1: Schedule a free solar assessment (to check if your home is a good fit).
Step 2: Choose a certified solar installer (we provide vetted options!).
Step 3: Apply for incentives & financing options to lower upfront costs.
Step 4: Install solar panels and start saving!
