The Average Cost of Solar in Maryland
For a typical single-family home in Maryland requiring an 8kW system, the gross cost ranges from $24,000 to $29,000. Let's look at the financial breakdown once the MEA grant and federal incentives are applied.
Metric | Estimated Value (8kW System) |
|---|---|
Gross System Cost | $26,000 |
Maryland Sales Tax (Exempt) | $0 |
Maryland Clean Energy Grant | -$1,000 |
Federal Tax Credit (30% of remaining cost) | -$7,500 |
Estimated Net Cost (Before SREC payouts) | $17,500 |
*Note: Because your system will continuously generate SREC cash payouts every year, your true lifetime cost of ownership continues to plummet far below the $17,500 net mark.
