In 2023, the average cost of residential solar systems in the United States stood at 3.39 U.S. dollars per watt. Although the cost of residential solar has slightly increased in the last three years, it is still less than half the average cost registered in 2010. The decrease in the cost of residential solar systems has contributed to the great increase in the solar capacity installed in U.S. households across the country.
