About Solar in Philadelphia
Philadelphia is Pennsylvania's largest city and a strong solar market in the Mid-Atlantic region. PECO serves Philadelphia and offers net metering for residential solar customers. Pennsylvania's SREC (Solar Renewable Energy Credit) program allows Philadelphia homeowners to earn additional income from their solar panels.
Philadelphia's large stock of row homes and twin houses make it an interesting solar market — many rooftops are suitable for solar. The federal 30% tax credit and PA SREC program combine for strong ROI.
SunLynk connects Philadelphia homeowners with pre-vetted local solar installers who understand Philadelphia County's permitting requirements and PECO's interconnection process.
