Renewable Energy Tax Credits: Ending Soon?

Renewable Energy Tax Credits
The remain months of 2008 are ticking down. The promise of renewing tax credits is very alluring, but to lock-in your guaranteed 2008 credits, renewable energy enthusiasts should start their project before the end of 2008. Remember, residential credits are limited to $2,000. Commercial enterprises have no limit on the tax credit.

Federal Tax Credits for Renewable Energy Systems
Renewable Energy Systems, such as Solar Hot Water Heating systems, and Solar Panels Systems (Photovoltaic Systems) are eligible for a tax credit of 30% of the cost, up to $2,000. (Use IRS Form 5695.)

Solar Water Heating Requirements
  • At least half of the energy generated by the “qualifying property” must come from the sun. Homeowners may only claim spending on the solar water heating system property, not the entire water heating system of the household.
  • The credit is not available for expenses for swimming pools or hot tubs.
  • The water must be used in the dwelling.
  • The system must be certified by the Solar Rating and Certification Corporation (SRCC).
Photovoltaic Systems Requirements
  • Photovoltaic systems must provide electricity for the residence, and must meet applicable fire and electrical code requirement.
