PSE&G’s all-in residential rate is approximately 26 cents per kWh, with further increases expected through 2026. Cherry Hill’s larger homes often use 800 to 1,200 kWh per month, translating to $210 to $310 or more in monthly electric bills. New Jersey’s incentive stack makes solar one of the strongest financial moves available: SuSI ADI of $85 per megawatt-hour for 15 years, 1:1 net metering at that 26-cent rate, no property tax increase, and no sales tax. New Jersey’s SuSI ADI program, property tax exemption, and sales tax exemption create a structurally stronger incentive stack than Pennsylvania’s, making Cherry Hill one of the best residential solar markets in the region.
From Barclay colonials to Kingston Estates ranches to Route 70 office buildings, Sunwise designs systems for Cherry Hill’s actual built environment.
Cherry Hill’s housing is predominantly mid-century single-family homes built between the 1940s and 1970s, including colonials, ranches, and split-levels across neighborhoods like Barclay, Kingston Estates, Springdale, Greentree, and Woodcrest. Sunwise uses premium panels and microinverters designed for these roof types.
Cherry Hill’s commercial landscape includes Route 70 and Route 38 retail and office corridors, the Cherry Hill Mall area, medical offices, and the Garden State Park redevelopment district. The 30% federal ITC (available through July 4, 2026), accelerated depreciation, and NJ SuSI ADI payments make commercial solar a high-return investment.
Summer storms and grid stress create outage risk, and a grid-tied solar system shuts down during outages by default. A battery keeps critical systems running. For homes with an aging mid-century roof, Sunwise bundles roof replacement and solar into a single project.

Sunwise Energy is headquartered in Cherry Hill and installs solar across every neighborhood in the township. We know the housing stock, the permitting process, and the solar conditions throughout Cherry Hill.
The heart of Cherry Hill's mid-century housing stock. Barclay's colonials and ranches, built predominantly between the 1940s and 1960s, are the classic Cherry Hill home. Kingston Estates features similar three- and four-bedroom detached homes with high owner-occupancy rates. These neighborhoods offer strong solar potential with favorable roof pitches and moderate tree cover.
Two of Cherry Hill's largest neighborhoods by population. Springdale stretches south of Route 70 with a mix of established homes and newer development. Greentree features mid-century homes alongside the Greentree shopping corridor. Both areas have predominantly single-family detached housing.
The Woodcrest neighborhood surrounds the PATCO Woodcrest station, making it one of Cherry Hill's most transit-accessible areas. Erlton, along the Cooper River, features a mix of homes from different eras. Both neighborhoods are well established with mature tree canopy that requires shade assessment.
Western Cherry Hill neighborhoods near the Route 70 and Route 38 corridors. Ashland features a mix of single-family homes and the Cherry Hill Mall commercial area. Ellisburg, at the intersection of Kings Highway and Route 70, is one of Cherry Hill's oldest settled areas.
The Golden Triangle area near the intersection of Routes 38 and 70 includes a mix of residential and commercial development. Old Orchard and Deer Park are established residential neighborhoods with larger homes and lots in the eastern part of the township.

Solar cost in Cherry Hill depends on your home’s energy usage, roof size and condition, system capacity, and whether you add battery storage. New Jersey’s incentive stack significantly reduces the net investment: the SuSI ADI program pays $85/MWh for 15 years, PSE&G provides 1:1 net metering at the 26¢ retail rate, and NJ offers both a 100% property tax exemption and full sales tax exemption on solar equipment. $0-down financing is available, meaning many Cherry Hill homeowners go solar with no upfront cost. Schedule a free Sunwise consultation for an exact quote based on your home.
PSE&G serves all of Cherry Hill at an all-in residential rate of approximately 26¢/kWh as of early 2026, with additional rate increases expected through the end of the year. For Cherry Hill homes using 800 to 1,200 kWh per month, that translates to $210 to $310 or more in monthly electric bills. Solar lets you lock in your energy costs instead of absorbing continued increases.
Solar permits in Cherry Hill are handled through the Township Construction Office at 820 Mercer Street. Both a zoning permit and construction permits under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code are required, with zoning approval needed before construction permits are issued. Sunwise manages the full permitting process on your behalf, from zoning through final inspection.
Yes, Cherry Hill’s mid-century homes are excellent solar candidates. The majority of the township’s housing was built between 1940 and 1969, with three- and four-bedroom single-family detached homes making up about 67% of the housing stock. These colonials, ranches, and split-levels typically have favorable roof pitches and good sun exposure. If the roof needs replacement, Sunwise can bundle both projects.
Cherry Hill homeowners can access four key New Jersey solar incentives: the SuSI ADI program ($85/MWh for 15 years), a 100% property tax exemption on solar value added to your home, a full sales tax exemption on solar equipment, and 1:1 net metering from PSE&G at the 26¢ retail rate. New Jersey’s SuSI ADI program, property tax exemption, and sales tax exemption create a structurally stronger incentive stack than neighboring Pennsylvania’s. For Cherry Hill’s median home value of approximately $474,000, the property tax exemption alone represents meaningful protection.
Yes, Cherry Hill’s commercial corridors along Route 70 (Marlton Pike), Route 38, and Haddonfield Road include office buildings, retail centers, medical offices, and the Cherry Hill Mall area. Flat-roof commercial buildings are ideal for solar. Business owners can capture the 30% federal Investment Tax Credit (available through July 4, 2026), accelerated depreciation, NJ SuSI ADI payments, and net metering to reduce operating costs.
