Most homeowners choose to go solar for years of electricity bill savings.

If a homeowner purchases a solar system, they are entitled to the Federal Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC). The ITC allows them to take 30% of the total cost of the solar system and apply it as a tax credit in the following year. If the homeowner does not pay federal taxes each year, they may not qualify for the Investment Tax Credit (ITC). 

In addition to years of electricity savings, the homeowner will contribute to helping the environment by going green!

The amount of sun your roof receives will dictate how good solar is for you. The direction of your roof will determine how effective the sun is. A south-facing sun produces the highest solar production. 

The higher the cost of electricity from your utility company, the more money you will be able to save by going solar.

Homeowners who use lots of electricity and have a good roof for solar will benefit from solar and the government incentives program.

The cost is directly affected by how much energy you use, which means your home may need a system that costs more or less than the average homeowner. 

If you purchase a solar system, you are entitled to the Federal Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC). The ITC allows you to claim 30% of the total cost of your system and apply it as a tax credit in the following year. For example, if you purchase a $20,000 system, you will be able to take $6,000 off your taxes the following year.

A solar proposal will show all the costs and savings of going solar. The proposal will also include the 30% tax credit, for homeowners who are eligible for this incentive. 

Outside of PPAs and leasing deals, a new solar system offsetting as close to 100% of the average American household energy usage will typically cost between $20,000 - $25,000.
