Federal, state, and local authorities offer great financial incentives to get homeowners to go solar. These incentives can reduce the upfront cost by over 66%.

Federal tax credits

The federal government provides a 30% income tax credit for solar property. For example, if you have a $10,000 solar system, you get a tax credit for $3,000. There is no limit on the tax credit and you can carry it forward up to 20 years in case you don’t have a tax liability this year.

Local rebate programs

Many states, cities, and utility companies have created various incentive programs but the amounts vary by program.
