A solar installation company might expect gross margins (the difference between revenue and cost of goods sold, as a percentage of revenue) in the range of 20% to 40%. Net profit margins (which take all operating expenses, taxes, and interest into account) would generally be lower, perhaps in the range of 5% to 10%. However, it's worth mentioning again that these figures can vary widely based on a variety of factors including geographic location, scale of operations, operational efficiency, and more.
Solar installation companies primarily make money by selling and installing solar panel systems. They source solar panels, inverters, and other necessary equipment from manufacturers, then mark up these products for sale to end customers. The installation process itself is also a significant source of revenue. In addition, some companies offer ongoing maintenance and repair services for a recurring fee. Companies may also benefit from various government incentives for renewable energy.

Starting a solar panel business can be worth it, considering the growing interest in renewable energy and government incentives. However, the answer to this question will vary based on your local market demand, competition, your business plan, and your ability to execute it. As with any business, it's important to do your research and understand the costs, potential returns, and risks involved.
