Solar

Currently over 50,000 homes and businesses on Long Island derive all or part of their electricity from the sun. The cost of solar panels has been dropping steadily over time, and between rebates offered by PSEG-Long Island and federal and state tax credits, in most cases solar energy systems are paid off in 5-10 years. Once paid off, aside from a modest fee connecting you to the grid, the electricity your panels generate is free.

Now is a great time to go solar. There are different ways to power your home with solar, with options for homeowners and renters. If you purchase a residential system, incentives for going solar typically cover up to 60-65% of a system's cost. But purchase is not required; there are options to access solar power generated locally at prices that are lower than the utilities', including a new free subscription program for income-eligible New York residents.

The Long Island Clean Energy Hub Community Energy Advisors can help you figure out which option may work for you.

  1. Residential Solar - solar panels on your roof or property
  2. Community Solar Subscription - short-term contract for purchasing solar power from solar farm
