Solar Energy
As a renewable source of power, solar energy has an important role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating climate change, which is critical to protecting humans, wildlife, and ecosystems. Solar energy can also improve air quality and reduce water use from energy production.
How Does It Work?
Sunlight hits the solar panels, and creates an electric field. The electricity generated flows to the edge of the panel, and into a conductive wire. The conductive wire brings the electricity to the inverter, where it is transformed from DC electricity to AC, which is used to power buildings.
Investment Tax Credit
The Inflation Reduction Act provides for a 30% Solar Tax Credit, a generous incentive that allows you to claim a tax credit when you install solar photovoltaic panels. Think of the solar tax credit as a “gift card” from Uncle Sam. It represents real money that makes going solar even more affordable than it already is.
