Avon, Connecticut
With above-average energy consumption, this Avon household needed a system large enough to make a meaningful impact on their electricity costs. At rates from Eversource ($0.27/kWh) and United Illuminating ($0.28/kWh), even a partial offset translates to significant annual savings.
In Connecticut, solar homeowners can benefit from programs like RRES and Energize CT. Sales tax exempt. Property tax exempt.
Important: The federal residential solar tax credit (Section 25D) expired on December 31, 2025. All savings calculations for this project reflect $0 federal tax credit for homeowner-purchased systems.
We designed a 25.2 kW system using 60 REC Alpha Pure-R 420W panels (420W each). REC Alpha panels offer industry-leading efficiency and one of the strongest warranties in the market (25-year product and performance). Their heterojunction cell technology delivers excellent performance in low-light and high-temperature conditions.
The Enphase IQ8M microinverters convert DC to AC at each individual panel, maximizing production even when some panels are shaded. Enphase’s panel-level monitoring lets the homeowner track performance of every single panel through the Enphase app. The IQ8 series also supports Sunlight Backup — limited daytime power during grid outages even without a battery.

Connecticut RRES (Residential Renewable Energy Solutions) provides performance-based incentives. Energize CT offers additional rebates through utility programs.
Federal Tax Credit Status: The residential solar tax credit (Section 25D) expired December 31, 2025. Homeowner-purchased systems receive $0 federal tax credit. All savings estimates above are calculated without any federal credit. Third-party owned systems (leases/PPAs) may still benefit from the commercial ITC (Section 48/48E) claimed by the financing company.
“Our 25 kW system is one of the largest residential installs in our town. NuWatt designed around our complex roof angles and maximized every square foot. Production is exceeding estimates by 8%.”
