Solar and home energy across New Jersey

We serve the whole state, including

  • North Jersey (including Bergen, Passaic, Hudson and Essex)
  • Central Jersey
  • The Jersey Shore
  • South Jersey

Permitting and approvals

  • Local construction official

    Solar and electrical work is permitted under New Jersey's Uniform Construction Code through your municipality's construction office, with building and electrical inspections.

  • Utility interconnection

    Each of New Jersey's utilities has its own interconnection application and approval timeline; we file it for you.

  • Incentive registration

    Eligible new solar projects register in New Jersey's ADI program before or around installation — timing affects the incentive value.

  • Shore and flood-zone homes

    Elevated and flood-zone homes at the Shore can have roof, wind and equipment-placement requirements we account for in the design.

Homes and buildings we design for

  • Two-family homes and attached housing near the Hudson
  • Suburban colonials and split-levels in North and Central Jersey
  • Elevated and coastal homes at the Jersey Shore
  • Ranches and newer construction in South Jersey
  • Small commercial and mixed-use buildings

Services in New Jersey

Programs and incentives in New Jersey

New Jersey's ADI program pays SREC-II incentives for eligible new solar statewide; values depend on segment and registration date. Heat-pump rebates differ by utility (PSE&G, JCP&L, Atlantic City Electric, Rockland Electric). The federal homeowner solar credit is not available for 2026 projects.

Verified November 2026; programs and funding can change. Incentives, rebates and tax credits depend on your utility, location, income, equipment, project details and program funding at the time you apply. Quest Solar does not guarantee eligibility or amounts and does not provide tax advice; consult a qualified tax professional about tax credits.

Federal Residential Clean Energy Credit (ended)

The federal Residential Clean Energy Credit is not available for expenditures after December 31, 2025 — the IRS states it is not available for property placed in service after that date. Quest does not advertise a 30% federal homeowner solar credit for 2026 projects.

Customer eligibility
Questions about prior-year systems belong with a tax professional.
How Quest helps
We price residential projects without assuming a federal homeowner tax credit.

Federal home-improvement and EV-charger credits (ended)

According to the IRS, the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (which covered heat pumps) applies only to property placed in service before the end of 2025, and the Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit (EV chargers) applied to property placed in service through June 30, 2026.

Federal commercial clean-electricity credit (Section 48E)

Commercial solar may still qualify for federal investment credits, subject to construction-start and placed-in-service deadlines, prevailing-wage and apprenticeship rules for larger projects, and other requirements. IRS Notice 2025-42 explains how beginning of construction is determined for solar facilities.

Customer eligibility
Eligibility and credit value depend on project size, timing, labor compliance, ownership and tax position. Have a qualified tax professional review your project; Quest never guarantees credit eligibility.
How Quest helps
Quest provides the schedule, cost and labor documentation your tax advisor requests.

The program page lists registrations open until a segment's capacity block fills or June 1, 2027, and reports that a May 21, 2026 BPU order set the residential net-metered incentive at $77 per SREC-II for registrations received on or after July 27, 2026.

Customer eligibility
Incentive value depends on market segment, registration date and block capacity; confirm current values on the program page.

Frequently asked questions

What is an SREC-II?

Under New Jersey's ADI program, eligible solar facilities earn SREC-IIs based on production, paid at a fixed value set by the BPU for the facility's market segment and registration period.

Which heat-pump rebate applies to me?

It depends on your electric and gas utility. We check your utility account and confirm the current rebate during the consultation.

Do you serve all of New Jersey?

Yes. Quest Solar serves the whole state, from Bergen County to Cape May. Use the ZIP checker on our homepage or call us to confirm your address.

I live at the Shore. Can I still get solar?

Usually, yes. We review elevation, wind exposure and roof condition, and keep batteries and electrical equipment above flood levels where required.
