Solar Incentives in Pennsylvania
The Pennsylvania Sunshine Program is a state initiative encouraging solar energy usage among small businesses and homeowners. This program has set aside $100 million in rebates to help support solar electric systems. Unfortunately, this program is not eligible to be combined with other incentives.
The Pennsylvania Solar Renewable Energy Certificates (SRECs) allows solar system owners to earn one SREC valued at $30-$47 for every megawatt-hour of electricity their system generates. If businesses apply and participate in this program, they can sell their earned SRECs on the open market to generate income.
In Pennsylvania, business owners 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.
What is the REAP Grant (Rural Energy for America Program)?
The USDA's "Rural Energy for America Program," or “REAP,” offers a grant designed to encourage agricultural and rural businesses to maximize their energy efficiency with solar.
