Sales Tax Exemption/ExclusionState

This incentive eliminates the need to pay sales tax on solar photovoltaic equipment such as panels, inverters, solar batteries, electric vehicle (EV) chargers, racking equipment, and installation costs.

The sales tax exemption is applied immediately at the point of sale, resulting in savings equivalent to the average state sales tax rate of 6%.

When your solar panels generate more electricity than you consume, the excess energy is returned to the grid, and you are credited for it.

These credits offset future electric bills, saving you even when your solar production is lower than your energy consumption.
