Mississippi Solar REAP Grant

Solar Incentives Available in Mississippi

Mississippi's net metering program allows commercial businesses with solar systems sell the excess energy that their system generates back to utility companies at the utility's wholesale value plus an additional 2.5 cents per kilowatt hour.

Mississippi businesses can take advantage of the federal Energy Investment Tax Credit program. This allows businesses to claim 30% of their solar system costs as a federal tax credit, and additional tax credits are available depending on the district.

Business owners in Mississippi can take advantage of the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS). This program allows business owners to recover some of the costs of solar panel installation through a five-year MACRS schedule.

Act Now!

Mississippi has implemented harsh restrictions limiting the impacts of net metering and there are very few state-specific solar incentives available to reduce to the cost of installing solar, making the REAP grant even more attractive to MS business owners. The 50% rebate on your solar energy system is one of the best incentives offered in the history of the solar industry. Take advantage of the USDA's REAP Grant in MS while it is still available.
