Frequently asked questions
What is New Jersey's SuSI incentive?
The Successor Solar Incentive pays homeowners $77 for every megawatt-hour their system produces (the rate set by the NJBPU in July 2026), locked in for 15 years. A typical North Jersey system earns roughly $650–$800 per year from SuSI alone, on top of bill savings.
Does New Jersey still have full net metering?
Yes — NJ is one of the strongest net metering states. PSE&G, JCP&L, and Rockland Electric credit exports at full retail rate, with annual true-ups.
Will solar raise my North Jersey property taxes?
No. New Jersey exempts renewable energy systems from property tax assessment, and equipment purchases are exempt from sales tax.
