THE ADVANTAGES OF GOING SOLAR IN WASHINGTON, D.C.

The District of Columbia has made a strong commitment to renewable energy, and in 2021 solar power contributed 46% of all the electricity used in the area. Among the many solar-generating sites within the district are the Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling military complex and DC Water’s Blue Plains Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant, which has a solar farm with 12,000 panels. The district also has a program that provides financial assistance to small businesses, nonprofits, seniors, and certain households to help defray the cost of a solar installation.

Choosing solar panels for your home means you’ll be participating in these efforts and enjoying benefits such as:

  • Reduced energy bills: Choosing to install solar panels in Washington, D.C., means you’ll use less power from the grid.

On top of these, adding solar batteries or a solar battery charger to your system provides more advantages because you’ll be able to use clean energy around the clock.

WHAT SOLAR INCENTIVES ARE AVAILABLE IN WASHINGTON, D.C.?

There are a number of programs and initiatives available in the District of Columbia that can help you pay for your new solar power system, including:

 

FEDERAL SOLAR INVESTMENT TAX CREDIT (ITC)

Qualified customers who purchase solar energy systems for their homes are eligible for federal tax credits. Starting in 2023 and through 2032, these are worth 30% of the total cost of the system and are applied to the homeowner’s income tax.

NET-METERING

This system allows you to sell any unused power generated by your system back to the grid. Washington, D.C., allows you to use these credits on your utility bill if your system doesn’t generate enough power.

PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTION

There is a property tax exemption available in the District of Columbia for solar and other renewable energy systems. Any increase in your home’s value after installation will not be reflected on your property taxes.

SOLAR RENEWABLE ENERGY CREDITS

These credits allow you to make money on electricity that your solar system generates that you don’t use. In 2021, these sold for prices between $365 and $435, the highest in the country.

SOLAR FOR ALL

The D.C. Department of Energy and Environment has partnered with organizations to install solar systems on single-family homes and develop community solar projects for multifamily developments. This is intended to help low- to moderate-income families who meet income guidelines.
