What Are The Benefits of Solar Energy?

Federal Solar Tax Credit Definition:

Commonly referred to as the solar tax credit, the federal solar tax credit gives you a dollar-for-dollar reduction against your federal income tax. It is regarded as the most significant financial incentive for solar in the U.S.

Breaking Down Federal Solar Tax Credit:

Currently, the residential federal solar tax credit gives you a dollar-for-dollar reduction against your federal income tax equal to 26% of the final cost of solar energy systems you install on your home. This benefit exists through December 31, 2022. In 2023 the residential tax credit will step down step down to 22%. In 2024, the tax credit for residential solar ends.
