Incentives & Benefits of Residential Solar Panels

Illinois SREC Adjustable Block Program

Solar Renewable Energy Credits provide a monetary value to the system owner when transferred in the Illinois Shines/Adjustable Block program. Each applicable SREC is awarded for every 1,000 kWh produced. This new incentive will provide a 15-year production value, typically paid within 12 months after installation has been completed.

Illinois Adjustable Block Program

30% Federal Solar Tax Credit

The solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC) is one of the most important federal policy mechanisms to support the growth of solar energy in the United States. The Investment Tax Credit allows you to reduce your tax liability by the listed percentage of the total cost of the system.

Net Metering for Illinois Solar Energy

Net Metering: Another financial benefit with solar is net metering, which is the exchange of bill credits for overproduction sent back to the grid, typically during summer months. Net metering allows you to balance out the solar production for the entire year by utilizing the production credits in the winter months when the sun is lowest in the sky. In other words, you can think of the utility as sort of a free digital battery bank.

Increased Property Value Without Increased Taxes

In most cases, solar inherently adds value to the property. Our goal is to ensure the ultimate curb appeal for maximum resale value. Solar installations in Illinois are exempt from property tax increases, so you have comfort knowing that this investment isn’t going to cost you in other ways.

Environmental Benefits

Enjoy an overabundant amount of satisfaction knowing your source of electricity is clean, renewable, and free from carbon emissions.
