How much does a Solar Shed cost?

Solar systems for homes might seem expensive, yet solar shed solutions start at $500 for a small off-grid system. Your specific needs determine the ideal solar setup for shed spaces. Storage sheds typically operate well with 100-400 watts of panel capacity. The installation process on your shed’s roof surfaces proves easier than expected.

Is a Solar Shed a good choice?

Even if your shed can't hold enough panels to power your entire property, it can still be an excellent choice to decrease your overall electricity usage or supplement an existing solar array on your home's roof.

Can you buy a whole shed with solar panels?

Many home improvement stores sell whole sheds with solar collectors included. Unfortunately, it's more common for these types of sheds to have passive solar thermal collectors (similar to skylights) rather than solar electricity panels. That's not to say these sheds aren't a good purchase.

Is the roof of my Shed suitable for solar panels?

One question you need to ask yourself is whether the roof of your shed is suitable for solar panels. Adding solar panels to your roof has a similar weight addition to installing another layer of shingles on a standard asphalt roof.
