Ecopower Jamaica is an approved NHT installer. Use your NHT benefits to go solar with little or no upfront cost.
The National Housing Trust (NHT) is a Jamaican government body that provides low-interest loans to contributors for home improvements — including solar panel installations. If you have been contributing to NHT through your employer, you may be eligible to borrow up to 100% of your solar system cost at a low interest rate and repay it over time through affordable monthly payments.
This means you can go solar today with little or no money out of pocket — and start saving on your JPS bill immediately, often making your monthly loan repayment less than what you were previously paying JPS.
Contact Ecopower Jamaica for a free, no-obligation site visit. We assess your property and design the right solar system for your needs and budget.
We help you understand your NHT eligibility and guide you through the loan application process. Our team has experience with NHT approvals and can assist you every step of the way.
Once approved, we install your system. Your JPS bill drops immediately — often making your monthly savings greater than your loan repayment.
To qualify for an NHT home improvement loan for solar, you generally need to:
The best way to check your eligibility is to visit an NHT office or check the NHT website at nht.gov.jm. Ecopower Jamaica can also assist you in understanding the process during your free site assessment.

Whatever financing route you choose, Ecopower Jamaica will provide you with the detailed quotation documentation your lender requires.
Does NHT cover the full cost of a solar system?
NHT home improvement loans can cover all or a significant portion of your solar system cost, depending on your contribution history, income, and the loan amount you qualify for. Ecopower Jamaica will provide a detailed itemised quote that you can submit with your NHT application.
How long does NHT loan approval take?
NHT loan processing times vary, but typically take a few weeks once all documentation is submitted. Ecopower Jamaica will provide all the technical documentation and quotations your NHT application requires promptly.
Can I use NHT financing for a commercial solar system?
NHT financing is primarily for residential properties owned by NHT contributors. For commercial solar installations, the Development Bank of Jamaica (DBJ) offers business loans for renewable energy projects.
Will my monthly loan repayment be more than my current JPS bill?
In many cases, your monthly JPS savings are greater than your loan repayment — meaning you are cash-positive from month one. The exact figures depend on your current bill, system size, and loan terms. We can calculate this for you during your free site assessment.
