Why homeowners in Pennsylvania look at solar
Power prices keep climbing
The U.S. Energy Information Administration puts the average U.S. home electricity price at 16.5¢/kWh in 2024 and 17.3¢ in 2025, and projects 18.2¢ for 2026.1 Your own rate depends on your utility.
Lock in part of your power cost
Electricity your panels make is electricity you don't buy at whatever the utility charges next year. How much of your bill that covers depends on your roof, usage and local rules, so ask each installer to show their math.
Backup when the grid goes down
Panels alone usually shut off during an outage for line-worker safety. Pair them with a battery and the right setup, and you can keep chosen circuits like the fridge, lights and internet running.
Buyers have paid more for solar homes
A Zillow analysis of 2018–19 sales found homes with solar sold for 4.1% more on average.2 A Berkeley Lab study of 2002–2013 sales in eight states found buyers paid a premium for owned (not leased) systems.3 Results vary by market and system.
Local incentives
Export credit and incentive terms depend on your electric utility (PECO, PPL and others). Ask each installer which current terms they used in your savings estimate. Ask installers about current lease, loan and cash options.
Little upkeep
Panels have no moving parts, and most need only an occasional check. Manufacturers and installers offer warranties, which differ by product, so compare the warranty terms in each quote.
