Texas

Yes, solar makes excellent sense in Texas due to abundant sunshine and high electricity rates. The Lone Star State ranks 7th nationally for residential solar installations, with systems typically paying for themselves in just 7 years.

With generous incentives like the 30% federal tax credit and property tax exemptions, plus protection from rising utility rates (which increased 28% since 2020), Texans can save approximately $91,345 over a system’s 25-year lifetime.

Texas doesn’t have a statewide net metering policy. Instead, compensation for excess solar energy varies by utility provider. Most Texas utilities offer either Monthly Net Metering or Net Billing (Export Credit) programs with rates typically between 3-8 cents per kilowatt-hour.

Important considerations include monthly settlement (most credits don’t roll over year-to-year), credits often forfeited in December without payout, and potential additional monthly fees for solar customers. Check with your specific utility provider before installation as their policies significantly impact your system’s financial performance.

Yes, solar panels typically increase home value in Texas. According to a Zillow study, homes with solar panels sell for approximately 4.1% more than comparable homes without solar.

For the average Texas home valued around $300,000, this represents a potential $12,300 increase in resale value. This appreciation, combined with Texas’ property tax exemption for solar installations, makes solar panels a valuable investment for homeowners considering long-term property value.

In Texas, the average cost of a residential solar system is $27,296 before incentives for a 9.72 kW system. After applying the 30% federal tax credit ($8,189), the final cost drops to approximately $19,107.

This investment typically pays for itself in 7 years and generates about $91,345 in savings over the system’s 25-year lifetime. Local utility rates, roof characteristics, and specific equipment choices will affect your actual costs.
