How Does it Work?

 

New York State is making solar energy more accessible to homes, businesses, and communities through NY-Sun incentives and a network of qualified installers. Combined with declining equipment costs, New York State tax credits, and Inflation Reduction Act tax credits, there’s never been a better time to go solar.

Types of Solar Energy

​

• On-site solar: Homes, businesses, multifamily buildings, and municipalities can get incentives to install rooftop or ground-mounted solar on their property to generate their own renewable energy.

• Community solar: Renters, homeowners, businesses, and other customers can tap into solar power generated in New York State without installing panels through community solar.
