Solar Industry News

For many years, federal incentives have helped businesses move toward a more affordable, resilient, and sustainable energy future. The 30% federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC) has been one of the most meaningful ways to reduce the upfront cost of installing a solar system. Under the federal energy bill passed last July, this incentive is sunsetting, and the window to secure it is closing.

At ReVision Energy, we want business owners across our region to have the information they need to make responsible, confident decisions. If you’ve been considering solar, battery storage, or an expansion of your existing solar array, now is the time to take a closer look.

Two Ways to Secure the Full Credit 

1. You meet one of the IRS “Start of Construction” tests by July 4, 2026, and complete your project by the end of 2030.
2. Your solar array is complete and placed in service by the end of 2027.

ReVision Energy Safe Harbor Deadline: May 1, 2026

To help Solar Champions secure the tax credit with confidence, ReVision Energy has established a Safe Harbor deadline of May 1, 2026.

To qualify for safe harbor with ReVision, you must:

• Be under contract with ReVision Energy by May 1, 2026.
• Submit your project deposit before we make safe harbor equipment purchases in June 2026.

Safe harboring helps ensure your project remains eligible for the full tax credit even as federal incentives begin to phase out.
