Find out how much you can save based on your location and current energy usage.
Pennsylvania's average residential electricity rate is roughly 21.55¢/kWh. Every kilowatt-hour your solar system produces replaces grid power at that rate, which supports payback. Confirm your specific utility rate before estimating savings.
Pennsylvania has no statewide property tax exemption for solar (treatment varies by municipality), no sales tax exemption, no state solar rebate, and no state income tax credit. Net metering is available. The 30% federal residential solar tax credit (Section 25D) expired December 31, 2025 and does not apply to systems installed in 2026 or later.
Pennsylvania averages roughly 4.0 peak sun hours per day — below the national average of about 4.5. Production is moderate; ask a local installer for a site-specific production estimate using your actual roof conditions.
