2026 – TAX CREDITS
What Your Business Can Claim Now: Through the Investment Tax Credit (ITC) and specific bonus “adders,” your project could qualify for:
-
30% Base ITC: The standard federal credit for commercial solar.
-
10% Energy Community Bonus: Extra credit for qualified locations.
-
10% Domestic Content Bonus: For using American-made equipment.
-
100% Bonus Depreciation: Maximize your Year 1 tax benefits.
The “Safe Harbor” Strategy:Timing is everything. According to current regulations:
-
Before July 4, 2026: If you “begin construction” (via Safe Harbor) by this date, you have until December 31, 2030, to complete your project.
-
After July 4, 2026: New projects started after this date lose that flexibility and must be fully operational by December 31, 2027.
Don’t let the July 4th deadline pass you by.
