Solar Incentives in Alaska

Business owners in Alaska can still take advantage of the Federal Investment Tax Credit to reduce the total cost of a solar energy system by 30%. This can be used in addition to the USDA's REAP Grant.

Alaskan business owners can take advantage of the federal Production Tax Credit (PTC). Solar systems under 1 MW that meet labor requirements are eligible for a tax credit of 2.75 cents per kWh. Larger solar systems over 1 MW that do not meet these standards still qualify for a lower rate of 0.55 cents per kWh. 

Additionally Alaskan business owners can qualify for the Domestic Content Bonus, which provides a 10% extra tax credit for projects using U.S.-manufactured materials, and the Energy Community Bonus, offering an additional 10% credit for projects in areas such as former coal communities. These federal solar incentives, available for up to 10 years after installation.
