Residential Solar Hot Water Rebates and Incentives
There are two incentives that households can take advantage of:
- The 40% federal tax credit. Normally this would be 30% but we are committed to using USA made Sunearth panels, which net a 10 percentage point bonus.
- The Massachusetts state tax credit: $1000
*Please discuss all tax credits with a professional tax advisor to ensure your eligibility
Solar hot water systems are sales tax exempt in Massachusetts.
