I wonder how many people would pay extra for a solar home. The only source that I have is Meet Kevin. He is a big fan of electric cars and solar, but said that panels only made sense if you plan on living there long enough for them to pay for themselves. People do not want to do the math on whether a solar home is worthwhile and they do not want the extra complication.
Zillow says:

Installing solar panels [...] can potentially increase the home’s value by up to 4.1% more than comparable homes with no solar panels, according to recent solar research done by Zillow — or an additional $9,274 for the median-valued home in the U.S.

Zillow says the ten states with the highest solar premiums are:
- New Jersey: 9.9% or $32,281
- Pennsylvania: 4.9% or $8,589
- North Carolina: 4.8% or $8,996
- Louisiana: 4.9% or $7,037
- Washington: 4.1% or $15,916
- Florida: 4% $9,454
- Hawaii: 4% or $24,526
- Maryland: 3.8% or $10,976
- New York: 3.6% or $10,981
- South Carolina: 3.5% or $5,866
All dollar values are for the median-valued home.
