New Jersey Solar Panel Installation
New Jersey is often considered the king of commercial solar installations in the U.S., featuring the country’s two largest rooftop solar arrays. But thanks to ambitious new state-mandated renewable energy goals for its largest electrical utilities, it’s no slouch in the residential market either.
A New Jersey solar installation will generate one solar renewable energy credit (SREC) for every thousand kilowatt-hours of electricity it produces, and utility companies pay the system’s owner for those credits through a state-sponsored online marketplace. This simple market-based approach is encouraging more and more solar growth, and Real Goods Solar wants to use its 33 years of experience to plug you into big savings as your one-stop New Jersey solar installation partner.
New Jersey Solar Financing
The SREC market provides outstanding returns to families who can afford to purchase and own a home solar PV system. But that’s not everyone, so Real Goods Solar also provides homeowners with a variety of other solar energy financing options in New Jersey including solar leases and our PowerSavings Plan, where you can go solar for as little as $0 down!
New Jersey Solar Energy News
New Jersey now has more commercial solar installations per square mile than any other state, and is considered by some analysts to be the world’s most stable solar market.

Word of Mouth
| “When (Real Goods Solar) came in and showed us that we could have the system paid off in four years, it was a no brainer. ‘My only regret is that I didn’t do this 10 years ago!”

“Each month when I write the check (to the utility) I will feel so much better – maybe I’ll go shopping instead.”
