6kW Solar Panel Systems: How Much Do They Cost? | EnergySage

How much does a 6 kW solar system cost? As of January 2022, the average cost of solar in the U.S. is $2.77 per watt ($16,620 for a 6-kilowatt system). That means that the total cost for a 6 kW solar system would be $12,299 after the federal solar tax credit discount (not factoring in any additional state rebates or incentives).
