How much you save depends on how much electricity you use and how much you generate with your solar system. In the process called “net metering,” when you have a grid-tied solar system installed (the most common type of installation), you’ll use the energy you need and the rest of the energy you’ve produced is sent back to the grid, which you get a credit for each month. You are compensated one kilowatt hour for every kilowatt hour you send back to the grid. For example, if your utility bill is initially $175 and you’ve sent $150 worth of energy to the grid, your actual utility bill will be $25.

There are several financing options for solar panel installation. The most popular is a home solar loan which is available for $0 down for qualified buyers. There are unique benefits to this kind of home improvement because your loan payment combined with your reduced electric bill should be lower than your pre-solar electric bill, which actually saves you money monthly.

This depends on where you live, but the average increase in the United States, according to a 2019 analysis conducted by Zillow, is about 4.1%. In most situations, this increase alone covers the cost of your entire system!
