Solar on a Con Edison bill: what to model first
NYC-area bills stack supply and delivery. Before you chase a rooftop or community-solar sales call, understand your usage and whether your building/roof can host a system at all.
Dense housing changes the job
Many Con Edison customers hit co-op boards, roof rights, or shading from neighboring buildings. Feasibility and process pain show up before ROI spreadsheets do. Start with roof readiness, then economics.
Incentives change — don’t memorize last year’s ad
Federal credits and state/NYSERDA-era programs evolve. Ask for current eligibility in writing and keep a neutral model so you’re not dependent on a flyer.
