Technical FAQs 4

How much do solar panels cost?

The price of solar panels changes depending on where you live, but the average for installation is just under $29,000 or $2.75 per watt. On the high end, we talked to a solar customer in Hawaii who spent $100,000 going solar. Dion in Nevada said their 10-kW system cost about $20,000, which is about the national average price for a 7-kW system.

How much does a solar system cost per watt?

As of publishing, the average cost per watt is $2.84. Most solar companies set the price according to the solar system's wattage. A solar installation's “cost per watt” is a little like the “price per square foot” when you buy a house. It helps compare the value of solar energy systems in different sizes.

How much does a solar system cost in 2025?

Solar panels generate “free” electricity, but installing a system still costs money. A typical American household needs a 10-kilowatt (kW) system to adequately power their home, which costs $28,241 in 2025. That price effectively drops to $19,873 after considering the full federal solar tax credit.

How much does solar cost per MWh?

Here’s a detailed breakdown of current costs by major renewable technology. Utility-scale solar photovoltaic installations now achieve LCOE ranges of $28-117 per MWh, with the best projects in high-irradiance regions reaching the lower end of this range.
