Despite mild seasonal variations, Cleveland is a great fit for solar thanks to a climate with great solar potential. Even with cold, snowy winters, there is great solar potential in the city. In fact, precipitation can help keep solar panels clean, and cold weather may help them operate more efficiently, meaning varied weather patterns can actually benefit solar panel units. With an average of 4.3 peak sun hours per day based on regional solar modeling by NREL1, Cleveland has the solar resources needed to support meaningful energy production. All in all, solar power has much to offer Cleveland homeowners.

Solar power may not only provide Cleveland homeowners with a potential reduction in household electricity use costs. Ohio residents may also qualify for state incentives and utility programs that may offset some of the upfront costs that come with making the switch to solar power. Some of these benefits include:
Property Tax Exemption: Any increase in a home's property value comes with the possibility of increased property taxes. However, Ohio offers residents switching to qualifying renewable energy systems an exemption, meaning the percentage of increase in property value would not be included in the property tax.2
Net Metering: Some utility companies in Cleveland offer net metering programs for those utilizing renewable energy sources. In this context, net metering is similar to a bank for solar energy credits. During periods of sunshine, any excess energy generated from the solar power unit is sent out to the power grid. This energy is then converted into credits, which can be used to offset energy use during non-peak sunlight conditions.
Incentives and rebates vary by location and may change. SunPower does not provide tax, legal, or accounting advice. Customers should consult a qualified professional.

“Clean energy” and “renewable energy” are more than just popular buzzwords. With solar power, homeowners in Cleveland may have a direct opportunity to influence the local “carbon footprint,” or impact of energy use on the environment. Solar power may also help Cleveland residents rely less on the Ohio power grid, creating more energy independence in the city. Other benefits include:
Lower Energy Bills: Utilizing solar power as an energy source may help reduce monthly electricity costs and provide protection against rising utility expense rates.
Energy Security: With solar energy, Cleveland homeowners may reduce their own dependence on the local power grid.
Environmental Benefits: Solar panels produce no greenhouse gases during operation, emitting no harsh chemicals into the air. Increasing solar unit use may improve air quality, improving the overall quality of life for many Cleveland residents.
Potential Home Value Impact: While housing markets vary and are constantly changing, some studies suggest homes with solar may sell at a premium compared to similar homes without solar.3
Backup Power Options: Adding battery storage may help Cleveland homeowners keep their homes running and functional during outages.
