Are there any state-specific incentives for solar energy that homeowners should be aware of

Federal Incentives

Residential Clean Energy Credit: Covers 30% of installation costs (2022-2032), decreasing to 26% in 2033 and 22% in 2034. Applies to solar PV systems owned outright or through community solar projects.


State-Specific Incentives

While Florida (highlighted in results) lacks a state tax credit, it offers:

  • Property tax exemption: Solar installations won’t increase property taxes for assessed home value.
  • Sales tax exemption: No sales tax on solar equipment purchases.
  • Net metering: Full retail-rate credits for excess solar energy sent to the grid.

Other states commonly provide:

  • Tax credits: Reductions in state income taxes (e.g., Maryland’s county-level credits).
  • Rebates: Cash incentives from utilities or local governments (e.g., Colorado’s Energy Smart rebates up to $2,500).
  • Loan/grant programs: Low-interest financing for solar projects (e.g., Colorado’s RENU loans up to $75,000).

Check local utility programs and state energy offices for additional rebates or performance-based incentives.
