New Jersey: Upgrade to Home Solar Power
Upgrade your home to solar in New Jersey for a low upfront cost.
New Jersey is a great state to look into home solar power. With residential electric rates higher than the national average, NJ homeowners are turning to solar power to take control of their electric bill. New Jersey also has a robust SREC (solar renewable energy certificate) market, where homeowners can sell credits earned by their solar system.
With Sunrun, it's easier and more affordable than ever to get solar power for your home. We offer a new kind of home solar, where you buy solar electricity, instead of expensive panels.
