Some Tips for INSTALLING
Solar PANELS in akron and canton Ohio

Most homes in Akron and Canton Ohio are serviced by Ohio Edison / First Energy Ohio. Ohio Edison, like all other investor-owned utilities in Ohio, is required to offer their customers net metering.

First Energy’s Ohio Edison does offer net metering to clients who install solar panel systems. Net metering allows you to offset your electric consumption and get credits for excess energy produced. 

Rural Co-Ops

If you live in rural Akron or Canton, Ohio area, you may be a member of a rural electric co-op. If that’s the case, be sure to read up on solar and rural electric co-ops. 

Our top questions list for any of our customers looking to hire a complete turnkey solar installer:   

  • How long have they been in business?      
  • Do they provide references? When you call those references, what do they say?    
  • Does your installer have a fully trained & licensed electrician on staff?     
  • Does the installer have NABCEP certificate holders on staff?    
  • How long is the workmanship warranty?   
  • Will they tell you if solar will not work well for you (due to roof condition, shading, or other factors)?  

Akron, Canton and any other part of Ohio, do not have specific solar incentives available to residents.  But, anyone who qualifies can take advantage of the Investment Tax Credit.    

Investment Tax Credit

This tax credit gives the solar system owner the ability to deduct 30% of the system cost from taxes owed. Get up to speed on the solar investment tax credit here 

Other Incentives

Substantial incentives for solar specific to Ohio do not exist. Be weary of solar installation companies sales tactics telling you there are additional incentives for installing solar energy. 

Under a new 2022 law, solar panel installations are allowable in HOA-governed areas unless specifically regulated in the bylaws or deeds.

After the passing of SB 61, HOAs are still able to “establish reasonable restrictions” on solar panels in their bylaws. So, there is still some wiggle room for HOAs to maintain solar restrictions. However, modifications to bylaws often entails obtaining approval from 75% of homeowners in the neighborhood.
