Incentives & Rebates

New Jersey Incentives

The state of New Jersey has adopted the Solar Renewable Energy Certificate (SREC) financing model to provide energy credits and additional long-term financing for those who invest in solar. SRECs can reduce the cost of a solar electric system by thousands of dollars. One SREC is issued for each 1,000 kWh (1MWh) generated. SRECs are then sold or traded, separately from the power, providing solar electric system owners a source of revenue to help offset the cost of installation.

Federal Incentives

Federal credits and state rebates can save up to 50% on the total solar electric system.

With today’s federal tax incentives, there’s no better time to go solar. The federal energy Investment Tax Credit (ITC) allows you to take a tax credit equal to 30% of the total cost of your solar system, and due to the Energy Improvement and Extension Act of 2008, the federal ITC remains available through 2016. Our finance team will be happy to provide additional details regarding this and other federal tax benefits – including bonus depreciation – and help you develop a solar solution which provides maximum financial advantage. Moreover, when you purchase a system with REC Solar, we’ll make sure you and your tax preparer have the necessary information and documentation to claim all applicable tax benefits.
