Are you considering solar power for your home but wondering about the costs? You're not alone! Many homeowners are surprised to learn about the variety of incentives and financing options available that can make solar more affordable. Let's explore how you can make the switch to solar energy while maximizing your savings.

‍

Bright Incentives for Portland Solar Adopters

‍

Several incentive programs are available to Oregon homeowners:

‍

1. Federal Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC): This incentive allows you to deduct 30% of the cost of your residential or commercial solar system from your federal taxes, with no upper limit. This credit is available through 2032 for both existing homes and new construction.

‍

2. Net Metering: Oregon offers net metering for customer-owned renewable energy generation. This means you can earn credits for excess energy your system produces, potentially reducing your electricity bills significantly.

‍

3. Energy Trust of Oregon Cash Incentive: Customers of Pacific Power and PGE who install new home solar power systems may be eligible for this program. Visit the Energy Trust of Oregon website for the most up-to-date incentive details.

‍

4. Property Tax Incentives: In Oregon, the added value to your home from a solar system is not included in property tax assessments.

‍

Remember to consult with your tax professional for advice specific to your situation.
