Government Tax Credits for Solar in Des Moines, Iowa

It’s time to CAPTURE THE LIGHT and go solar. The demand and popularity for renewable energy are rising, due in part to the reduction in system cost paired with federal and state incentives. Customers can reduce their energy consumption between 60 and 80 percent with our solar system setups. The reduction of your energy consumption needs may even reduce the number of modules/panels in your original system configuration, saving you even more money.

Federal Government Tax Credit

The Investment Tax Credit (ITC) is a bedrock solar incentive. The federal government provides a tax credit worth 30% of the cost of your system. This tax credit may also be applied to other aspects of your project that qualify, giving you the ability to maximize your savings.

MACRS Depreciation Incentive

Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) is a depreciation method that allows the business owner of solar energy equipment to claim a significant tax deduction. As an incentive, the IRS has classified a solar energy system as a 5-year property under the MACRS depreciation schedule. This classification accelerates the returns on your investment, putting more money in your pocket. MACRS is only available for commercial properties.
