About Solar in Baltimore
Why Baltimore Homeowners Are Going Solar
Baltimore is Maryland's largest city and a strong solar market. BGE (Baltimore Gas and Electric) serves Baltimore and offers net metering for residential solar customers. Maryland's CleanEnergy Rebate program and state and local incentives (note: the 30% federal ITC expired December 31, 2025) make solar a smart investment for Baltimore homeowners.
Maryland also has a Solar Renewable Energy Credit (SREC) program that allows Baltimore homeowners to earn additional income from their solar panels. With 213 sunny days per year, Baltimore has excellent solar potential.
SunLynk connects Baltimore homeowners with pre-vetted local solar installers who understand Baltimore City's permitting requirements and BGE's interconnection process.
