Why Go Solar in Connecticut

  • Connecticut enjoys grid parity thanks to some of the highest utility rates in New England, meaning solar here saves more and pays back faster.

  • Homeowners benefit from a statewide sales tax exemption on solar equipment, trimming upfront costs immediately.

  • The state offers a generous property tax exemption, so adding solar doesn't raise your local tax bill, even as your home value climbs.

  • Connecticut's Renewable Energy Solutions (RRES) program offers flexible tariff options, including netting, that help your solar savings stay strong long-term.

Connecticut Solar Incentives

Federal Tax Credit (Residential Clean Energy Credit, Sections 25D & 48E) - Homeowners who own a solar system outright can claim a 30% tax credit on eligible costs if the system is installed and commissioned by December 31, 2025. After that date, the residential credit ends for purchased systems, but will still be available for leases or Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) until December 31, 2027.

Sales Tax Exemption - Connecticut waives its 6.35% sales and use tax on qualified solar system purchases. (Homeowners can save well over $1,000 immediately.)

Property Tax Exemption - Solar systems are exempt from property tax increases, meaning your solar-enhanced home won’t cost you more in taxes.

RRES Program (Renewable Energy Solutions) - Offers two tariff options, “netting” (like traditional net metering) or “buy-all” (selling your solar output at fixed rates) that are locked in for 20 years for long-term value.

Smart-E Loan (CT Green Bank) - Low-interest financing through the Smart-E Loan program makes solar more affordable, and you can use up to 25% of it to fund non-energy home upgrades like roof repairs.

Connecticut no longer offers traditional net metering, but the Renewable Energy Solutions (RRES) program provides a netting tariff option, delivering similar benefits by crediting excess energy against your usage for 20 years.

What is the RRES program?

RRES stands for Residential Renewable Energy Solutions. It’s Connecticut’s solar buy-back program that offers homeowners netting or buy-all tariff options locked in for 20 years.

Does Connecticut charge sales tax on solar systems?

No. Connecticut provides a full sales tax exemption (6.35%) on solar equipment purchases, reducing your initial installation costs.

Will solar panels raise my property taxes in Connecticut?

No. Connecticut law ensures that solar installations are exempt from increasing your local property taxes, even as they increase your home’s value.

How much sun does Connecticut get for solar?

Connecticut averages about 3.8 to 4.0 peak sun hours per day—enough sunlight for efficient solar performance when paired with the state’s strong incentives.

Can solar panels withstand Connecticut’s weather?

Absolutely. Modern solar panels are designed to handle Connecticut’s mix of snowy winters and humid summers, and Lunex installs systems rated for regional weather and snow loads.
