Did you know that homeowners who have recently installed solar photovoltaic (PV) panels may be eligible to receive a federal tax credit?

The federal residential solar energy credit is a tax credit that can be claimed on federal income taxes for 26% of the cost of a solar PV system installed in 2020-2022.

• Am I eligible to claim the federal solar tax credit?
• What expenses are included?
• How do other incentives I receive affect the federal tax credit?
