Why NY Homeowners Choose IGS for Solar Panels
Solar should start with the actual home: roof planes, usage, utility rules, equipment, financing, and the install crew that will build it.
Custom-Designed Systems
Every IGS solar system is engineered for your specific roof, usage, and goals. Our inhouse design team models production, utility offset, roof layout, and long-term performance before recommending a system.
Premium Equipment
IGS installs industry-leading equipment from Enphase, SolarEdge, Tesla, SolArk, and Solis. Panels carry up to a 30-year warranty and are selected for durable, monitored production.
Your Local Installer
Offices in Ithaca, Binghamton, and Bainbridge. Our inhouse installation crews handle the project from design through activation, with local accountability after the system is turned on.
What Solar Really Changes
More than a utility bill reduction. Real, sourced incentives, and flexible financing — a shift in who controls your home's energy.
The State Backs Your Investment
NY offers a 25% personal tax credit on your solar system — up to $5,000 back. The state is on your side.

What Our NY Customers Say
Reviews from real IGS customers across Upstate NY.
“The IGS team walked us through every option, every rebate, and every tradeoff. The install took two days. Our first full-year production exceeded the estimate by 6%. Professional from start to finish.”
“We wanted a ground-mount because our roof is older. IGS designed it for minimal maintenance and strong production. The trenching and conduit run from the array to the main panel was done cleanly — no torn-up yard a year later.”
“The NY state tax credit alone covered a meaningful chunk of the system. IGS laid out all the numbers and let me decide — no pressure. Monitoring has been straightforward.”
Common Questions About Solar Panels
How much does a solar panel system cost?
Every home is different — cost depends on roof size, energy usage, equipment choices, and available incentives. We provide a free, no-obligation quote with a custom system design and every available rebate quantified.
Does my roof qualify for solar?
Most roofs do. A free site assessment evaluates orientation, shading, age, and condition. If your roof isn't a good fit, we'll tell you honestly — we've said no plenty of times.
How does net metering work in New York?
When your panels produce more than your home uses, the excess goes to the grid and you earn credits on your utility bill. Credit rates vary by utility and tariff — we model your specific utility in the quote.
How long does installation take?
Installation itself is typically 1–3 days. The full timeline from contract to net-metering activation is usually 8–12 weeks — most of that is permits and utility interconnection.
What's the warranty?
Panels carry up to 30 years (product + production), microinverters 25 years, and IGS provides a workmanship warranty on the installation. Every warranty is documented in your proposal.
What happens if I sell my house?
Solar typically increases home value (Zillow / Berkeley Lab research). An owned system transfers with the house at closing. We provide documentation for the buyer.
