Solar Marketing in Philadelphia

Solar in Philadelphia means flat rowhouse roofs, neighbors comparing notes and a regional program that has already put thousands of systems on homes. We help solar installers book consultations with websites that explain rowhome and suburban installs clearly, show your licenses and registration, put ads in front of owners instead of renters, and keep long decision cycles moving with CRM follow-up.

Philadelphia context

Solar in Philadelphia

A program with momentum

The Philadelphia Energy Authority launched Solarize Philly in 2017 as a group buying program for rooftop solar. More than 3,800 participants have since installed systems through ownership or lease, adding more than 22 megawatts, and the broader Solarize Greater Philadelphia program now offers free technical help to property owners in Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Philadelphia counties. Homeowners arrive already informed and comparing installers.

Credentials buyers notice

Solar installs involve electrical work, and Philadelphia licenses electrical contractors through an exam and experience requirement. Firms selling systems to homeowners also need a state home improvement registration number, and it must appear in their advertising. Owners occupy 51.8 percent of the city's homes, per the 2020-2024 ACS, so aiming at owners rather than renters matters.

What solar installers face

01

Long decision cycles

Solar buyers research for months and talk to neighbors who already went solar. Educational content, honest savings math and patient follow-up keep you in the running.

02

Trust in a crowded market

Homeowners have heard stories about high-pressure door-to-door sales. Transparent pages, local reviews and clear credentials set a reputable installer apart.

03

Renters cannot buy

Nearly half of city households rent. Aiming ads at owner-occupied homes and at suburban townships keeps spend on people who can actually sign.
