Solar Panel Installation Long Island

We’ve installed solar across the island, from Baldwin through Brookhaven to Southold. Roof space is usually not a problem in Long Island. Most homes have room for a full system. You can add battery storage to keep the lights on during a storm, and you can size up to cover the power of an electric vehicle or a heat pump. If you’re connected to LIPA or PSEG, your system will tie in. And with incentives, you can start with no money down.
Most homes on Long Island are with LIPA or PSEG rates that go up every year. For families in Riverhead, Shirley, or Port Jefferson, that means electric bills often climb. Solar won’t stop the rate hikes, but it will limit how much it affects you.

Solar System Size on Long Island

Most homes need between 20 and 24 panels to cover a major part of their electric bill. That fits on most roofs without crowding edges or vents. You can add more if you plan to switch to electric heating or charge a vehicle at home!

Home and Business Size

For larger houses in places like Holtsville or Miller Place, or properties with high daytime use, systems go up to 30 panels or include battery backup. Commercial buildings usually need 80 panels or more.

Future Payoff

Once it’s running, your system starts lowering your bill right away. How much you save depends on your usage and sun exposure, but most setups pay for themselves in 7 to 9 years. After that, the electricity it generates costs nothing for another 15 to 20.

FAQs

Solar panels are designed to be resistant to most forms of environmental elements; hail is no exception. Their tough materials, including toughened glass and reinforced frames, boast great rigidity and resistance against impacts.

Strength: The panels are tested to withstand harsh weather conditions, including hailstones as big as 1 inch in diameter, plummeting at a velocity of approximately 50 mph.

Heavy Hail: Standard panels stand up great to regular hail, but huge pieces of hail or extremely severe conditions can begin to show damage. For any area prone to this kind of extreme weather, discuss with your installer additional protection.

Here’s what typically happens depending on how your solar system is financed:

Owned Outright

  • The panels are included in the home sale.
  • They can increase your home’s value and appeal to buyers.
  • No extra steps, just part of the property transfer.

Financed with a Solar Loan

  • You may need to pay off the remaining loan at closing.
  • Some loans can be transferred to the buyer, if they qualify and agree.

Leased or Under a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)

  • The lease or PPA must be transferred to the new homeowner.
  • The buyer must qualify and agree to take over the contract.
Our team will conduct a thorough assessment of your roof to determine its suitability for solar installation. Factors include roof condition, orientation, pitch, and shading. We will provide recommendations and solutions based on this evaluation.

Yes, you can sell electricity back to the grid in New York under a scheme known as net metering. That means you could be generating renewable electricity for self-consumption at one time and feeding excess power into the grid. You get a credit in return, offsetting your future electricity use.

Under the Ministry of Energy, there is the Net Metering program through Regulation O. Reg. 541/05: NET METERING. This could help homeowners and businesses bring down their electricity bills while greening the grid by hooking onto renewable energy sources, such as solar.

That means you can save on your energy bills by generating your electricity, but any excess energy you produce adds extra value to your renewable energy investment.

Yes, you may still receive a bill, but it will likely be significantly lower. Depending on your energy usage and system size, some months you may even generate excess power, which can be credited to your account.

 Our panels are built to withstand extreme weather, including strong winds common along Long Island’s coasts.

Firstly, your home will remain connected to the grid, so if your solar panels don’t produce enough energy to meet your needs, you can draw power from the grid.

This means that you are going to have a constant power supply no matter the season of the year or whether the weather acts up. If you feel there is a big drop in the production of power, the first thing you do is to take a look at the panels for evident problems like dirt or other debris on them. If the problem persists, contact us. We can diagnose and clear all underlying issues to make your system work optimally again.
