Frequently Asked Questions
What solar incentives are available in Maine?
Maine offers several incentives for going solar, including net metering (Net Energy Billing), which allows you to earn credits for excess solar energy sent to the grid. Federal tax credits are also available, significantly reducing the cost of your solar investment.
What is the average cost of a solar panel system in Maine?
The cost of a solar panel system varies depending on system size, equipment, and roof complexity. The average cost of solar panels in Maine is $19,980 for a six-kW system.

Do Maine’s long winters impact solar production?
While Maine winters have shorter daylight hours, solar panels can still produce significant energy. Modern solar panels are efficient even in less intense sunlight. Furthermore, snow on panels typically melts off quickly, especially on angled roofs. Venture Home designs solar systems optimized for Maine’s climate to ensure optimal performance year-round. We can assess your specific location and energy needs to accurately estimate your winter solar production.
