New Orleans Solar Incentives and Tax Credits
Federal: There is a 30% Investment Tax Credit for solar which has been beefed up in 2009 and doesn’t have a cap. This is a tax credit (better than a deduction) equal to 30% of your out-of-pocket expense when going solar.
State: Louisiana has a massive 50% tax incentive for going solar. It’s probably the best incentive in the nation. It is in the form of a state tax credit, but really, it’s a rebate. The reason I say that is because if you don’t have the tax liability, they send you a check as an overpayment. The best part is that the state program has considerable funding that should last at least until the end of 2009 and probably beyond.
