ORION SMART POWER
Arizona
Arizona is home to one of the largest solar energy investment opportunities in the United States. The Grand Canyon state ranks fifth in total solar panels installed in the country. With 299 sunny days per year, Arizona is the national sunshine champion and receives 50% more sunshine than the rest of the country. The new era of sustainability has equipped the state to provide solar power to almost a million homes and has more than 6100MW in solar panel installation. The plenitude of sunshine gives Arizona a remarkable and exciting solar energy potential.
4 Reasons Why It’s Worth Going Solar in Arizona
ALLEVIATE OUTAGES
Add battery storage to your solar system so you can rely on clean energy and disconnect from the grid during outages.
COUNT ON SAVINGS
Reduce your carbon footprint while harnessing the power of the sun. Solar panels take advantage of this by providing consistent, reliable power.
LOWER YOUR FOOTPRINT
Solar power has many advantages over fossil fuels as a renewable energy source. It is a more viable option for your home, community, and the environment.
INCREASE HOME VALUE
​Due to the increasing popularity of solar-powered homes, they stand out, resulting in immense profits as they sell faster and at a higher value in the national real estate market.
Available Solar Incentives in Arizona
Incentives help lower the cost of your solar energy system. Those available in Arizona include:
-
The Federal ITC: Most solar energy installations are eligible for the federal tax credit—formally known as the Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which allows you to deduct up to 26% - 30% of your solar system’s installation costs from your total tax liability for the year of purchase. Storage costs when paired with solar qualify for the ITC.
​
-
State tax credit: Arizona residents purchasing solar can claim up to $1,000 as a deduction to state income taxes.
​
-
State property tax exemption: Solar has been shown to increase the value of your home. Arizona exempts this addition from your property taxes, meaning you don’t pay extra taxes because you got solar panels.
​
-
State sales tax exemption: Solar is exempt from Arizona’s sales tax.
