California may have more solar energy systems than New England (it is a lot bigger, after all!), but according to this New England Clean Energy customer, East beats West when it comes to customer service and installation quality! The happy customer posted this on Solar Reviews: “We had a solar system in California before we […]

The higher the rate you pay your local electric company today, the greater value solar can bring you. But even in Boxborough, where a municipal light department offers one of the state’s lowest rates at about 10 cents per kWh, solar still makes sense. This homeowner effectively cut her kWh rate from 10 cents to […]

“Great company to work with. They were very on the ball to get every part of the project done in a reasonable time and in the proper order.

Because the more panels and the higher the purchase (or loan) price, the more electricity and green income you make. So don’t worry about how many panels you need. Talk to […]

At the time of this writing, Massachusetts offers a $1,000 tax credit to homeowners installing solar on their properties. That’s on top of the even bigger federal tax credit, which lops 30% off your solar purchase price (even if you finance with a loan). And yet those savings pale in comparison to the value of the […]

These homeowners filled up so much of their two roofs with solar panels that we had to take two photos to show the entire system. In addition to slashing their electricity price (from 21 cents per kWh to 6 cents), and boosting their property value by more than $35,000, their solar will make them approximately […]
