Homeowners in New York City are encouraged to install solar panels before the federal tax credit, which currently provides a 30 percent savings, ends in 2025. To qualify for the credit, installations must be completed by then. Delays in installation may push projects into 2026, resulting in lost savings. Rising electricity costs projected by future legislation could increase annual household bills significantly. New York State maintains several incentives for solar, including tax credits and property tax cuts, making it an advantageous time for homeowners to invest in solar energy.
Homeowners in NYC can save around $15,000 on solar installations before the federal tax credit expires in 2025, which requires systems to be operational by then.
Rising electricity costs due to increased reliance on gas could raise household expenses by $130 by 2030 and up to $170 by 2035.
New York State offers significant incentives for solar installations, including up to $5,000 in tax credits and property tax cuts of 30 percent for solar investments.
Con Edison offers net metering, allowing homeowners to sell back excess energy produced, further enhancing savings for those who install solar.
