By investing in solar energy, you in essence become your own utility company
In addition to the significant long-term savings from solar, these current financial incentives can dramatically reduce or eliminate your out-of-pocket costs:
- 30% Federal Tax Credit
- California State Rebate
- Increased Home Value
Federal Tax Credits
In an effort to support investments in solar energy, the federal government currently offers a tax deduction off your federal taxes for 30% of your solar system costs through an investment tax credit (ITC). This deduction can be rolled over to subsequent years should you not owe taxes in the year of installation.
California State Rebate
The state of California, in conjunction with many utility companies, has created programs, such as the California Solar Initiative, to encourage homeowners to switch to renewable energy sources. These programs were designed to reward early adopters of solar power, so rebate amounts continue to drop as more people make the shift to solar energy and state funds diminish. To get the highest state rebate available, call SolarscapeUSA today at (760) 271-5601 to make the commitment to solar power and secure your state rebates.

New Study Proves That PV Installations Contribute ‘Sizable’ Value To Homes
Homes with solar PV systems sell for a premium over homes without solar installations, according to a study read more by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
According to the lab, this research is the first to empirically explore the existence and magnitude of residential PV sales price impacts across a large number of homes and over a wide geographic area. Over the past few years, an increasing number of homes with PV systems have sold, particularly in California, but relatively little research has been performed to estimate the impacts of those PV systems on home sales prices.
Overall, the researchers found that homes with PV in California have sold for a premium, expressed in dollars per watt of installed PV, of up to $6.4/W.
“These average sales price premiums appear to be comparable with the average investment that homeowners have made to install PV systems in California, and of course, homeowners also benefit from energy bill savings after PV system installation and prior to home sale,” says the report’s lead author, Ben Hoen, a researcher at Berkeley Lab.
