Solar companies in New Jersey

New Jersey is the densest solar state in the Mid-Atlantic: about 5.5 gigawatts installed across more than 209,000 systems — top ten in the nation despite some of its cloudiest skies — and a 2025 law just unlocked another 3,000 megawatts of community solar alone, in a program that reserves most subscriptions for low- and moderate-income households.

Homeowners get paid twice for the same sunshine. Net metering credits the power you export at the full retail rate, month to month, with any credit left over at the end of your annual cycle bought back at the wholesale rate — and you keep your renewable energy credits. On top of that, the SuSI program's Administratively Determined Incentive pays you again for the production itself: one SREC-II certificate for every megawatt-hour your system generates, sold at a fixed state-set price that is locked in for 15 years when you register. Solar equipment is also exempt from New Jersey's 6.625% sales tax, and the value panels add to your home is exempt from property tax.

From Newark and Jersey City to the Shore and South Jersey, the installers below can register your system for SuSI and size it to your annual usage — the key to getting full value from net metering.
