Its an odd time right now for residential solar in the USA right now.
On the down sides:
Tariffs are hitting equipment manufacturers for certain components coming from outside the USA
Interest rates are moderately high for customers having to borrow to make the purchase
Large solar install companies continue to fall. Sunnova is the most recent to announce bankruptcy making long term installer warranties risky
On the battery front, Tesla is one of the best/cheapest solar battery solution makers, and they are politically toxic right now
On the upside:
The 30% tax credits are still in place at least until the end of 2025
Electricity rates have continued to increase, meaning solar would be more beneficial
If you can pay cash and you own your own home, going solar is most likely going to be beneficial for you. If you have to borrow or have heavy tree cover on your property it becomes more questionable. I have been very happy I put panels on my house and am benefiting from it.
