Solar Panels for Low Electricity Homes in NYC
New Yorkers are highly energy efficient relative to the national average. And particularly for homeowners who rent one or more floors to tenants – a common arrangement for NYC townhome owners – monthly ConEd bills can be quite manageable.
As a result, compared to their suburban counterparts, many local solar seekers require relatively small systems to meet their needs. However, for most solar companies small-scale installations like these are unappealing and not worth the effort.
But at BSW we see opportunity where others see inconvenience. We have made serving low energy customers a core part of our business and regularly realize projects deemed too small to install by our competitors.




Customer Experience
“Brooklyn Solar Works is a company that has that rare combination of thorough, knowledgeable professionalism and laid-back ease-to-work-with culture. Moreover, they deliver on their promises. The installation was clean and professional and accomplished in one day. Their follow up was meticulous. A pleasure to work with.”
“BSW just installed solar panels on my rowhouse in Windsor Terrace. Throughout the process of scoping and building the system, the company was spot on. A large crew - courteous and efficient - completed all the work in less than a day. Workmanship was excellent. There were no hidden extras...Everything was competent and honest. The company lays out initial cost, existing tax rebates and calculates anticipated cost recovery. Actually almost looking forward to summer!”
“These guys were g-r-e-a-t! From the first scouts who discussed the project with us to the electrician and the roofer, to the installers everything went well. We had 15 panels placed on a brownstone roof in a landmarked area without a hitch. They were not only a good team who worked efficiently together and neatly but they recognized that their work is important for our ecological health.”
“I had such a good experience with every man and woman I dealt with at Brooklyn SolarWorks. I have just been reading the other reviews, and everything they say is true. . . Great bunch of dedicated, hard-working, knowledgeable and just plain nice people.”
Anatomy of a Solar System
Residential solar systems are surprisingly simple, consisting of only a few main components located on the roof and in the basement. BSW’s experienced installation team can complete a typical project in just one day with minimal disruption to your home and routine.
