Solar Panel Installation Nassau County

Homes in Nassau County have something most New York City rooftops don’t: room! Most homes sit on decent-sized lots with room for solar panels.

Ranches in Levittown, split-levels in Hicksville, raised ranches in West Hempstead, a lot of them face south or west and get sun all day. It also tends to cost less per watt because we can fit standard panel layouts. If you’re on LIPA or PSEG, your system will connect smoothly, and you can start at $0 down.

Typical Solar Setup in Nassau

Most homes in Nassau County need between 18 and 24 panels to cover the bulk of their electricity use. That fits neatly on a standard roof without crowding edges or vents. If you’re thinking ahead, like adding an EV charger or switching to electric heat, we can design the system to grow with you.

Residential

Installing solar panels for homes in places like Garden City or Merrick, or properties with high daytime usage, systems go up to 30 panels. Some include battery storage to keep the lights on during LIPA outages.

Commercial

Solar installation for businesses usually requires 80 panels or more, depending on size and power demand. Once it’s running, a typical setup cuts the electric bill by 60% to 100%. Most systems pay for themselves in 7 to 9 years.

Rebates

You don’t have to pay full price for solar in Nassau County. Between the 30% federal tax credit and New York State incentives, thousands come off the total cost. The state offers a direct tax credit of up to $5,000. There are also rebates through NY-Sun that go by system size (the bigger your setup, the more you can get back). If you’re on LIPA or PSEG, those programs often include extra support for connecting your system to the grid.

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.

Not unless you have battery storage. Most solar systems shut off during a power outage for safety reasons, even if the sun is shining. But adding a battery, like the Tesla Powerwall, keeps your lights on when LIPA goes down. We’ve helped hundreds of Nassau homeowners add backup power, especially in areas prone to outages from storms or high winds.

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.

Yes, and a lot of homeowners here do. If you drive a Tesla, Nissan Leaf, or plug-in hybrid, solar can cover most or all of your charging needs. We design systems with future usage in mind, so you can add panels later or size it right the first time. With electricity rates high and gas prices unpredictable, it’s one of the smartest long-term moves for families in Levittown, Merrick, or Plainview.
