Solar Panel Installation New Jersey

We handle solar interconnection with all major New Jersey utilities including PSE&G (Public Service Enterprise Group), JCP&L (Jersey Central Power & Light), Atlantic City Electric (ACE), and Vineland Municipal Electric Utility (VMEU). We file all interconnection paperwork as part of every installation.

NJ solar incentives in 2026 include: SREC-II program (~$90/MWh for 15 years, locked at registration), 1:1 net metering at full retail rate, 6.625% sales tax exemption, property tax exemption (solar adds zero taxable value), and HOA solar protections (April 2026). The federal 30% tax credit expired December 31, 2025.

South Jersey solar installation averages $2.50–$3.50 per watt in 2026. A typical 8 kW residential system runs $20,000–$28,000 before incentives. After NJ sales tax exemption and SREC-II income (~$900/year for 15 years), your effective net cost is significantly lower. We offer $0-down financing.

Physical installation takes 1–2 days. From signed contract to live system, the typical timeline is 4–10 weeks depending on your township’s permit processing and your utility’s interconnection queue. We handle all permitting and interconnection paperwork.

No. New Jersey fully exempts solar panel installations from property tax assessments. Even though solar increases your home’s market value, that added value is excluded from your tax assessment automatically. No extra filing required.
