Find Solar Installation in Your City
Going solar in Massachusetts isn’t one-size-fits-all. Every city and town has its own permitting process, inspection requirements, and utility considerations.
From fire setbacks and building approvals to utility interconnection with Eversource, National Grid, or municipal providers, the details can vary depending on where you live.
Based on our real-world experience installing solar systems across Massachusetts, we’ve created local guides to walk you through exactly what to expect in your town — step by step.

Solar Installation by Utility in Massachusetts
Your utility provider also plays a major role in how your solar system is designed and approved. We regularly work with all major utility providers across Massachusetts, including:
Eversource
Covers most of Eastern Massachusetts and follows a standard interconnection and net metering process.
National Grid
Serves many areas outside of Eversource territory, with similar interconnection steps but different timelines and review processes.
Municipal Utilities
Some towns operate their own electric utilities with different interconnection requirements, unique net metering policies, and separate approval processes.
