Federal solar tax credit in 2026

The residential ITC remains 30% through 2032 for systems you own (purchase or loan). On a $16,170 install in Florida, that is roughly $4,851 in tax credit value.

Leases and PPAs do not qualify — the installer keeps incentives. See our full ITC guide for claiming steps.
