There has never been a better time to go solar in Sicklerville, NJ than right now and Exact Solar is the NJ solar installer to call. Across NJ, the economics are especially favorable for solar energy systems that create electricity, also called solar PV (photovoltaic) systems, because the price of panels has plummeted over the past 3 years and the price of SRECs in NJ is still relatively high. Additionally, the 30% federal tax credit is still available on the retail price of the system.
At current electricity rates, in Sicklerville, NJ it generally takes about 4 – 5 years for a solar electric (PV) system to pay for itself — that’s a 20%+ return on your investment!. After that, your own solar “power plant” creates electricity for you using a free and abundant energy source, forever offsetting your energy expenses, and producing electricity that never goes up in price…no mining, drilling, transporting, or re-fueling required.
Residential solar energy systems typically cost $3.00 to $4.00 per watt (installed, before the federal tax credit). So, a 5 kW system costs around $15,000 to $20,000, depending on the complexity of the installation. Subtract from that 30% and your out-of-pocket expense is $10,000 to $14,000.
At today’s prices, your own residential solar energy system, will provide you with electricity at a rate of about 1 – 2 cents/kWh over the next 25 years. (In Sicklerville, NJ, most people are paying the utility company about 18 cents/kWh today…and that will continue to go up over time.).
