Anyone who installs solar power systems on residential properties will receive a 30% solar investment tax deduction (ITC). This is specified in Section 25d of the Tax Code.
It is possible that with this credit, the typical EnergySage Marketplace user can save approximately $6,150.00 in solar energy cost. However, there is no dollar limit on the value of an ITC; It applies to both residential and commercial systems.
In this sense, the 30% tax credit is valid until 2033; But, from that moment on, it will drop to 26%.
So how does it work?
As part of the Inflation Reduction Act, in 2022 the ITC was extended at a rate of 30% for an additional 10 years. This means that homeowners can now take advantage of the tax credit to invest in solar energy through 2034.
Because of the popularity and its goal of achieving a renewable energy economy, Congress has repeatedly pushed back an end date International Trade Centre.
The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy explains that the federal residential solar credit is a tax credit. Therefore, a percentage paid by the taxpayer of the cost of the solar PV system can be claimed on income taxes.
Unless Congress renews it, this tax credit will expire in 2035. However, solar PV systems installed in 2020 and 2021 are eligible for a 26% tax deduction. Likewise, it will decrease to 26% for systems installed in 2033 and to 22% for systems installed in 2034.
If you have a $20,000 solar system that a city inspector deems to be operational in 2023, you can claim a $6,000 tax credit. This will be done on the 2023 federal tax return to be filed next year.
