Unlock Financial and Environmental Benefits
Federal Solar Tax Credit
Benefit from the federal solar investment tax credit (ITC), which allows you to deduct 30% of your solar energy system's installation costs from your federal taxes. This substantial incentive significantly reduces your upfront investment.
State and Local Incentives
Depending on where you live, you could qualify for additional savings that make solar even more attractive:
- Iowa Solar Tax Credits: While Iowa's residential tax credit has sunset, many local utilities still offer rebates and net metering programs that reduce your electric bill and improve your ROI.
- Property Tax Exemptions: In many states, adding solar won't increase your property taxes, even though it boosts your home's value.
- Sales Tax Exemptions: Some states exempt solar systems from sales tax—that's hundreds in upfront savings.
Long-Term Savings
Solar panels can reduce or eliminate your electricity bills. With an average payback period of 6-10 years, you'll enjoy free electricity for decades, saving thousands of dollars over the system's lifetime.
Environmental Impact
By switching to solar, you're reducing carbon emissions and supporting clean energy. A typical residential solar system can offset 3-4 tons of carbon annually, equivalent to planting over 100 trees each year.
