Indiana Incentives

Federal Income Tax Credit
Taxpayers may be able to claim a tax credit on their Federal Income Tax return of 30% for qualified expenditures on a solar system that provides electricity to their residence. Business taxpayers may be eligible for a similar tax credit of 30% or more, depending on the circumstances, on a solar system that they own. Individual or business tax credits may be possible to carry forward to offset future tax liabilities if there is insufficient tax liability in the solar system’s first year of operation. Consult your tax advisor to determine whether this credit is available to you and for what amount.

Net Metering
If your solar system produces more energy than you’re using, you may get credits applied to your monthly electricity bill at the discretion of your utility provider.2 Net metering can vary, depending on your utility provider.

Steps to Solar
Consultation
During this meeting, we’ll share details about your system and answer any questions you may have about your project and solar energy.
Design
Our site surveyor will visit to take precise measurements – and share them with our design team to help with the completion of your system design.
Permitting
Along with a design packet and approval from a licensed structural engineer, we send required documents to your municipality for a building permit, which is granted at the discretion of the municipality, or authority having jurisdiction (AHJ).3
Installation
Once permitting is approved, we’ll get your installation scheduled. Most residential installations take from one to three days – and we’ll show you around the system once installation is complete.
Installations Around Indiana
Our Indiana teams can provide a full range of solar services – from design to completion and beyond – to support installation and maintenance of residential, commercial, and agricultural solar systems, as well as additional enhancements such as battery storage.
