The renewable energy sector continues to expand, despite policy uncertainty under the Trump administration.
Massachusetts Solar Incentives: 2025 Overview
Massachusetts offers strong incentives to make solar energy affordable. Homeowners can utilize the 30% Residential Clean Energy Credit, and the state’s SMART Program provides additional rebates to lower costs. Net metering allows residents to earn credits for excess energy, reducing future bills, and Solar Renewable Energy Certificates (SRECs) offer extra income. Going solar in Massachusetts…
Residential Clean Energy Credit
The Clean Electricity Investment Credit (previously called the Federal Investment Tax Credit) helps lower the cost of installing solar panels by 30%. This credit covers everything: the solar panels, equipment, labor, permits, and even sales tax.
For example, as of 2025 the average cost of a 10 kW solar system in the U.S. typically ranges between $21,000 and $29,500 before applying any federal tax incentives. After claiming the 30% Clean Electricity Investment Credit, the price drops to around $14,980 to $21,070, depending on the state and other factors like equipment quality and labor costs.
To claim this credit, you must buy your solar system with cash or a loan (leases don’t qualify). You also need to owe enough in taxes to claim the credit, but if you don’t, you can carry it over to future years until 2034.
Claiming the Clean Electricity Investment Credit is simple!

What are the top solar incentives in Massachusetts?
Besides the Clean Electricity Investment Credit (former ITC), homeowners can take advantage of several outstanding incentives that significantly enhance the return on investment for solar panels. Here are some of the most effective ways to lower your solar installation costs.

Tracking Adder for Eversource Energy – Eastern Massachusetts Tranche 1
On January 11, 2018, DOER announced the results of the SMART Competitive Procurement. The purpose is to establish a statewide solar incentive program to encourage the continued use and development of generating units that use solar photovoltaic technology by residential, commercial, governmental and industrial electricity customers throughout the Commonwealth. Each Capacity Block shall have a minimum of 20% and a maximum of 35% of its total available capacity reserved for Solar Tariff Generation Units with nameplate capacities less than or equal to 25 kW. All Solar Tariff Generation. Units with capacities less than or equal to 25 kW AC will be eligible to receive compensation for 10 years from the Solar Tariff Generation Unit’s RPS Effective Date. A Solar Tariff Generation Unit with a capacity of 25 kW AC or less may only combine its Base Compensation Rate with the Energy Storage Adder whereas a unit with a capacity larger than 25 kW AC can combine its Base Compensation Rate with no more than one Compensation
