Yes, it really is. Hamilton County gets about 1,800 hours of sunlight a year, which is plenty for a good solar setup. With electric rates always creeping up, locking in lower energy costs with solar just makes sense. And with the 30% federal tax credit, NYSERDA rebates, state incentives, and net metering program, it’s a lot more affordable than most people think. If your roof gets decent sun, it’s definitely worth looking into.

The cost of installing solar panels in Hamilton County can vary widely because every home is unique. Factors like your energy usage, roof size and shape, shading from trees, and the type of equipment you choose all play a role in determining the final price. Additionally, incentives such as the federal tax credit and New York State programs can significantly reduce your overall costs.
