Why Go Solar in Staten Island?
Staten Island homeowners on Staten Island have some of the best solar conditions in NYC: larger lots, less shading from adjacent buildings, and strong sun exposure. Con Edison rates of 24–32¢/kWh combined with NYC's 30% property tax abatement and NY's 25% state tax credit make the economics particularly compelling.
A typical home with an 8–10 kW system generates roughly 9,000–12,000 kWh a year, enough to cover most of an average household's use. What it actually saves you depends on your roof, your usage, and your rate, which is exactly what we pin down before you commit. One thing changed in 2026: the 30% federal credit now reaches homeowners only through a prepaid lease, and New York City's state and local incentives stack on top. We walk you through which path fits your home.
