Maryland has just passed a massive win for homeowners struggling with skyrocketing utility costs. Through the new Power Purchase Program, eligible homeowners can have solar panels and batteries installed at zero out-of-pocket cost — saving them thousands every year on electric bills. If you live in Maryland, you may now qualify for locked-in energy savings of up to 90%.

What Is the Power Purchase Program?
For years, utility companies in Maryland have raised electricity rates by more than 50%. Now, the Power Purchase Program allows solar providers to install full solar systems on eligible homes — for free. These systems are:
- Installed and maintained for at least 20 years
- Paid for through federal and state incentives
- Fully managed (you don’t deal with any paperwork)
- Capable of dramatically lowering your energy bill
Homeowners are reporting $100s in monthly savings, and over $10,000 in lifetime energy savings.
Why Maryland Approved This Program
This initiative is part of a statewide push toward clean, affordable energy. The current administration is actively funding programs to help homeowners reduce their carbon footprint and their electricity costs — without needing to pay for solar systems themselves.
It’s a smart move:
- Clean energy adoption goes up
- Homeowners get relief from utility hikes
- The state moves closer to energy independence goals
How Much Could You Save?
Depending on your roof size and energy usage, homeowners enrolled in the program are seeing up to 90% savings on monthly electric bills. Even better? These savings are locked in for 20 years, protecting you from future rate hikes.
Example:
- Before Solar: $310/month average bill
- After Solar: $42/month locked in
- Annual Savings: ~$3,200
How to Qualify (And Why a Home Energy Audit Is Required)
Not every home will qualify — and time is limited. To find out if you’re eligible, you need to schedule a home energy audit. That’s the first step to determine:
- Your home’s current energy efficiency
- Whether your roof supports solar installation
- If your property meets state requirements
