Solar Energy Systems: All You Need to Know

Solar energy captures the sun’s power and converts it into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) panels. This renewable energy source is sustainable and helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions, promoting a cleaner, healthier environment.

Here’s how the process works:
1 Sunlight Absorption

PV cells in solar panels absorb sunlight throughout the day.

2 Direct Current (DC) Generation

When sunlight interacts with the PV cells, it excites electrons, producing direct current (DC) electricity.

3 DC to Alternating Current (AC) Conversion

A solar inverter converts DC electricity into alternating current (AC), the type used in homes and businesses.

4 Power Distribution

AC electricity flows through the electrical panel, powering appliances and devices.

5 Energy Storage or Grid Feedback

Any excess electricity can be stored in solar batteries for later use or sent back to the grid, potentially earning credits through net metering.

The Rise of Solar Energy in New Hampshire

New Hampshire has seen a significant increase in solar energy adoption, with 18% of its electricity generation coming from renewable resources, including small-scale solar installations, in 2023.

Why Invest in a Solar Energy System

Increasing Electricity Bills

New Hampshire has one of the highest electricity rates in the United States, with an average of 23.62 cents per kilowatt-hour in March 2025, compared to the national average of 16.26 cents.

Interest in Reducing Your Environmental Impact

Need for a Reliable and Independent Energy Source

Desire to Increase Property Value

According to a 2024 study, homes with solar energy systems typically sell for 6.8% more than those without.

Net Metering Net metering allows homeowners with solar systems to sell excess energy back to the grid which can lower their electricity bills. However, net metering regulations are subject to change, so staying updated with your utility provider is important. Not all utilities offer net metering, and rates can change over time. Confirm your provider’s net metering policies before installing your system. NH Net Metering Information

FAQs

Everything You Need to Know

With rising electricity costs and the state’s growing focus on renewable energy, New Hampshire solar power is becoming an increasingly worthwhile investment in New Hampshire.
Yes. Many variables such as panel location, energy needs, and whether or not you will include storage impact the cost of a system. Once you have a design proposal from a reputable solar contractor, incentives can offset some of the cost. Financing plans often result in a monthly payment that is equal to or less than your monthly utility bill. Even better, the financed payment will never go up, it will only go away over time.
A solar energy system typically lasts 25-30 years, with many panels continuing to produce energy even after that time, though at a slightly reduced efficiency.

The distance a solar farm can be located near houses depends on zoning laws and local regulations, but they are typically set back a few hundred feet from residential areas.

No, solar panels pose no direct health risks when installed properly. They are safe for both homeowners and the environment.
