07 Aug Top Solar Saving States

Every year, the rankings for solar power continue to change. As more and more states and residents are beginning to see the benefits that come from solar, the rankings are increasing. The solar power industry also grades the states in order to determine which states are ahead of the game and moving forward quicker.  This then helps us determine which states are benefitting the most from investing in solar power. Here are some of the top solar saving states for 2020.

Massachusetts

Massachusetts remains the top state to switch to solar in for 2020. The payback period for a purchased solar panel system is on average 6 years. With this, Massachusetts continues to support the many different tax exemptions and tax credits for homeowners that decide to go solar in 2020. Massachusetts has an average grade of “A” for their solar ranking and grading. The push for a cleaner source of energy is the exact reasoning for their continuous growth within the solar industry.
