WHY GO SOLAR? Here are the federal, state and local incentives that make Going Solar a no-brainer
The Tax Credit
2021 is the last year to take advantage of the 26% Federal Income Tax Incentive. 26% of the cost of your system is applied to your Federal Income Tax Liability. This incentive for a typical home is between $5,000 to $15,000. That means you could save up to $15,000 or more off your taxes for the year of your install.
Property Tax Credit
Several Counties in Maryland have made it incredibly exciting to go Solar. Prince George’s County for example offers up to $5,000 off your property tax for 1 year. If your property taxes are $7,000, you would get $3,500 off that property tax bill in 2021. When you couple that with the $1,000 Maryland Solar Grant, the 26% Federal Tax Grant and the Solar Renewable Energy Credits, Many of our customers are experiencing incentives that pay for their electric bill for the first 2-4 years.
Maryland Grants
Maryland currently has money set aside for cash grants to people that instal solar (PV) on their homes. This is a $1,000 cash incentive that is simply sent to the homeowner upon completion of the solar installation and completion of the application to the state. Funds are limited each year, so installing early is the best option. The fiscal year for this just reset was July 1, 2020 so funds are available for you.
Solar Renewable Energy Credits
Solar Renewable Energy Cerificates also known as SRECS, are like Stocks. Companies like BGE have to generate specific amounts of their energy from Renewable Energy. If they fail to meet this guideline, they must buy SRECS on the open market to off-set the shortage. You get 1 SREC per year for each KWH of Solar Energy you Generate. An average house will generate 10-15 KWH of solar per installation. At current rates in Maryland at $79 per SREC, a 15 KWH System will generate $1,185 in extra Cash every year for 15 Years.
