Free Solar Panels In New Jersey

 

New Jersey

New Jersey, is one of the top states to be adopting solar power, although not abundant in sunshine they are making solar power work.  You can get solar panels for free here with a power purchase agreement.  Or if you decide to purchase outright with a loan you’re still coming out ahead with all the incentive that New Jersey has to offer.  Either way you will reduce your monthly payments and start saving money over your current electrical bill.

In the future when you’ve paid off your solar panels think about that, you won’t just be lowering your monthly payment after about 8 years you cam now start pocketing that money that you was your loan payment and start making money.

New Jersey has a number of incentives working for it, but just like in most states there is a standard that is at the heart of  pushing clean energy.

New Jersey has set forth a plan to have 22.5% of all it’s energy production coming from renewable energy sources by 2021, Just 6 years away.  I suspect that once mandates like these are met you will that solar power will no longer need any kind of outside help to be rooted as a viable energy solution for the future.
