How Solar Power Works for Boston Homes

Boston already has thousands of solar-powered homes — from the historic brownstones of Dorchester to the triple-deckers in Jamaica Plain. With strong sun exposure even in winter and some of the highest energy rates in New England, more homeowners are making the switch every week. Here’s how solar works in Boston neighborhoods like yours:

1.  Solar Panels (Photovoltaic Cells).

These panels sit on your roof and capture sunlight — even in cold Massachusetts winters — converting it into electricity to power your home.

2. Inverter Technology

The inverter transforms solar energy from DC to AC, making it usable for your lights, TV, appliances, and more.

3. Battery Storage (Optional)

Add a battery to store extra energy. You can use it overnight, during power outages, or when rates are highest.

4. Net Metering + Grid Interaction

MA law lets you send excess energy back to the grid for credits. This can wipe out your electricity bill completely during sunny months.

5. Clean Energy for Massachusetts Homes

You’re producing power directly from the sun. No fumes, no fossil fuels — just clean, renewable energy on your terms.
