If you live on the South Shore of Massachusetts, you’re likely feeling the impact of rising electricity rates. Solar panel installation allows you to take control of your utility costs, build energy independence, and protect your home or business from outages and further price hikes.
My Generation Energy has been designing and installing solar energy systems throughout Quincy, Weymouth, Braintree, Plymouth, Hingham, Cohasset, Marshfield, and Scituate for more than a decade. Our team of solar experts approaches every step of the process with the utmost care and can help you decide if going solar is right for your South Shore home or business.
Benefits of Solar Panel Installation on the South Shore
Avoid Rising Electricity Costs
Massachusetts has some of the highest residential electricity rates in the country, and many South Shore households have seen their bills rise in recent years. Solar panels let you generate a portion or all of your electricity on-site, reducing your reliance on grid power and locking in savings for decades.
Build Energy Independence
When you pair solar panels with battery storage, you can store excess solar energy to use later, even if the grid goes down. A solar-plus-battery system can help keep essentials, like refrigerators, WiFi, and well pumps, running during outages.
Reduce Your Carbon Footprint
Solar panels produce 100% clean electricity, allowing you to significantly cut your carbon emissions and utility bills at the same time. A smaller carbon footprint also helps protect our coastal communities on the South Shore.
What Does Solar Cost on the South Shore?
Every My Generation Energy solar installation starts with a free solar site assessment and a custom quote. During this process, our team will evaluate your property to determine the most effective location and design for your solar PV system and give you pricing based on your energy usage and available solar incentives.
The exact cost of solar installation will depend on the system size, installation complexity, equipment choices, and whether you add on energy storage. However, homeowners on the South Shore generally see an average solar payback period of 7-8 years.
South Shore Solar Panel Production
Solar panels will work all year, but production will vary throughout the seasons depending on changes in local weather and daylight patterns along the coast. The longer, sunnier days and high sun angle of late spring and early summer translate into more energy. South Shore homeowners typically see peak solar production in May, June, and July.
Seasonal ups and downs are built into your solar estimate from My Generation Energy, as we have years of experience working in Quincy, Plymouth, Marshfield, and other South Shore towns. We provide start-to-finish services for home and commercial solar installations. From custom system design to professional installation and ongoing solar maintenance, our team acts as your long-term partner in going solar.
