Switch Together Solar 101 Webinar
Interested in installing solar panels on your roof or adding battery storage? We are happy to promote another round of Switch Together! This group buying initiative allows residents to go solar at a significant discount, with optional electric vehicle chargers and battery storage. In collaboration with the deeply experienced nonprofit Solar United Neighbors, the program guarantees high-quality solar installations for residents and small businesses.
SIGN UP FOR THE SOLAR 101 WEBINAR ON AUGUST 7, 2025 AT 6:00 PM
Switch Together uses the power of group buying to secure a competitive price for your solar installation through a reverse auction process through which solar installers compete to offer their best prices. By registering with Switch Together, you’ll receive a free solar recommendation from a pre-vetted installer. This proposal is customized to your
home and will help you make an informed decision. You will receive your recommendation immediately upon registering.
The current program is expected to save the average household $6,958 on a typical-sized solar installation. The 30% federal tax credit can further reduce your costs, making solar energy more accessible than ever before. New legislation sets a deadline to claim a 30% solar tax credit. Only expenditures made by December 31, 2025 will be
eligible under the new law — act this year to secure your tax savings.
Registration is free and there’s no obligation to proceed with a solar installation. This makes for a safe and easy way for Montgomery County residents to participate in the program. To discover how much you can save by going solar, sign up by September 3, 2025 at SwitchTogether.com/Solar/CapitalArea.
