Question 1

How accurate is this electrification calculator?

Accepted Answer

This calculator provides planning-level estimates based on typical costs for your state. Your actual quote from NuWatt will reflect a detailed site assessment, your specific home characteristics, and current equipment pricing. Estimates are typically within 10-15% of final project costs.

Question 2

What happened to the federal solar tax credit for homeowners?

Accepted Answer

The residential solar tax credit (Section 25D) expired on December 31, 2025. Homeowners purchasing solar with cash or a loan no longer receive a federal tax credit. However, third-party owned systems (solar leases and PPAs) still qualify for the 30% investment tax credit under Section 48/48E, which is passed through as lower monthly payments.

Question 3

How does the bundle discount work?

Accepted Answer

NuWatt offers bundle discounts when you combine multiple electrification services in a single project. Two services get 3% off, three services get 5% off, and four or more services receive an 8% Full Electrification Discount. This reflects real labor and mobilization savings from a single integrated installation.

Question 4

What state incentives are available in 2026?

Accepted Answer

State incentives vary significantly. Massachusetts offers Mass Save rebates and ConnectedSolutions battery income. Rhode Island has Clean Heat RI with up to $11,500 for heat pumps. Connecticut offers Energize CT rebates. New Jersey provides Whole Home incentives up to $7,500 for heat pumps. Your calculator results show all applicable incentives for your selected state.

Question 5

Can I start with just solar and add other services later?

Accepted Answer

Yes. NuWatt designs systems with future expansion in mind. We size your solar array and electrical panel for the full electrified load from day one, so adding a heat pump, battery, or EV charger later is straightforward. However, bundling services together saves more due to shared labor and mobilization costs.
