Solar Tax Policy

The U.S. has a long history of supporting energy infrastructure through the U.S. tax code to drive cost-cutting innovation and job growth. The market certainty provided by a multiple-year investment tax credit for solar energy property has supported private investment in manufacturing and project construction, propelling annual solar installation growth by 800% since tax credits were implemented in 2006. SEIA remains engaged in all areas of tax policy affecting its members, including:

• 1603 Treasury Program
• The Solar Investment Tax Credit
• Solar Manufacturing Incentives
• Other changes to the tax code to facilitate investment in solar and other renewable energy technologies.
