Solar Panels in Woodsville, NH

Woodsville, New Hampshire residents are served by Woodsville Water & Light Department, which charges $0.15 per kWh for residential electricity. This is 11% below the national average of $0.168/kWh. At this rate, a typical household using 900 kWh per month spends approximately $1,615 per year on electricity—money that could be going toward building equity in a solar system instead.

An 8 kW solar system in Woodsville can offset most or all of a typical home’s electricity usage, saving approximately $1,435 per year. Over the 25-year lifespan of the system, that adds up to $52,326 in total savings. The estimated payback period is 17.4 years.

As a municipal utility, Woodsville Water & Light Department sets its own rates and rebate programs independently. Net metering is available, meaning excess solar energy you produce earns bill credits from Woodsville Water & Light Department.

The federal residential solar tax credit (Section 25D) expired at the end of 2025, making state and utility incentives more important than ever.
