No peer-reviewed study of New York sales data finds a 30% effect. The largest US analysis to date — Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory's review of 1.8 million home sales near 3,700 solar arrays — finds a 1.5% average effect within one half-mile of utility-scale solar and no measurable effect beyond one mile. The 30% figure traces to a single non-peer-reviewed blog post that mislabeled a hypothetical worst-case appraisal scenario as an observed average.
