Essential Solar Knowledge
1. How does the 30% Federal Tax Credit (ITC) work?
The ITC is a dollar-for-dollar reduction in your tax liability. Balance rolls over for 5 years.
2. Impact of NEM 3.0?
By adding battery storage, you store mid-day solar power and use it during peak TOU windows, maintaining high ROI.
3. Does it increase home value?
Yes. Zillow shows solar homes sell for ~4.1% more, typically exempt from property tax hikes in solar-friendly states.
4. Panel Degradation?
Tier-1 panels degrade at 0.5% per year, producing roughly 88% capacity after 25 years.
5. Property Tax Exemptions?
Many states ensure that the added equity of a solar system does not increase your property tax bill.
6. Performance in clouds?
Solar uses light photons, not heat. While efficiency drops on overcast days, it never hits zero.
7. Cash vs. Loan?
Cash buyers see the fastest payback. Loans provide "Day One" positive cash flow by replacing a bill with a lower payment.
8. Inverter Warranty?
The inverter is the "brain". While panels last 25+ years, inverters may need replacement at yr 12 unless using microinverters.
