Why Beverly homeowners are going solar.
Beverly is a coastal North Shore city with a strong residential base, a historic downtown, and waterfront neighborhoods that include some of the most desirable homes on the North Shore. High electricity rates and affluent housing stock make Beverly a standout market for solar plus battery storage.
Beverly homeowners on National Grid benefit from the same high retail electricity rates that drive strong solar economics across the North Shore. The city's mix of historic homes near the downtown waterfront, single-family residences in Beverly Farms and Prides Crossing, and newer construction throughout the city supports a wide range of solar system sizes. Battery storage is increasingly popular in Beverly given the coastal exposure to nor'easters and occasional grid outages. Our design team handles Beverly's permitting process and the historic district requirements that apply in some neighborhoods, and we've completed installations from the dense triple-deckers near Cabot Street to large single-family homes along the coast.

- What's the average electricity rate in Beverly?
- Beverly homes are served by National Grid, with residential rates typically in the $0.28 to $0.33 per kWh range as of 2025. These are among the highest electricity rates in the United States, which is the main reason solar payback in Massachusetts is shorter than the national average.

- How long does a solar installation take in Beverly?
- Most Beverly residential installations take 4 to 8 weeks from signed contract to system activation. The on-site rooftop install itself is one to two days. The rest of the timeline is engineering, permitting with the Beverly building department, and the utility interconnection process with National Grid.
