Frequently Asked Questions
Does Massachusetts have net metering?
Yes. Massachusetts has a strong net metering program that credits you at the retail rate for excess electricity your system exports to the grid.
What is the SMART program?
SMART is the Solar Massachusetts Renewable Target program. It provides monthly incentive payments based on how much energy your solar system produces for 10 years. For a full overview of SMART and other available programs, see our guide to Massachusetts solar incentives.
Does Massachusetts charge sales tax on solar systems?
No. Massachusetts exempts solar equipment from its 6.25% sales tax, saving you money upfront.
Will solar panels increase my property taxes in Massachusetts?
No. Massachusetts law provides a 100% property tax exemption for the added home value of solar systems.
How much sun does Massachusetts get for solar?
Massachusetts averages 4 to 4.5 peak sun hours per day, which—combined with strong incentives—makes solar highly cost-effective in the state.
Can solar panels handle New England snow?
Yes. Modern solar panels are built to withstand heavy snow loads, and their smooth surface helps snow slide off once the sun comes out.
Do I need an electrical panel upgrade before going solar in Massachusetts?
Sometimes. Many older New England homes — particularly those built before the 1980s — have panels that may need upgrading to support a solar system, battery storage, or an EV charger. Our licensed electricians evaluate your panel as part of the design process and handle any upgrades in-house. Our guide on electrical panel upgrades before going solar walks through exactly when one is required and what to expect.
Can Lunex install a home EV charger in Massachusetts?
Yes. We install Level 2 EV chargers for homeowners across Massachusetts, including all required wiring, dedicated circuit work, and any panel upgrades needed to support the load. Many customers combine an EV charger install with solar so their car runs on clean energy they generate at home. For everything you need to know before getting started, see our guide on home EV charger installation.
