Are there incentives and tax credits for installing solar PV systems?

Yes. There may be a federal tax credit of 30%. In addition, there may be:

  • State or local income tax credits
  • Property tax exemptions
  • Rebate programs from government agencies

These vary by national, state, city and utility, and may also depend on whether the system is purchased or leased.

Find information about Ohio’s programs on the DSIRE website. Be sure to consult with your financial and tax advisor. Be sure to research the Department of Energy, IRS, or DSIRE websites for the latest status of incentives or credits.
