Federal solar credit is gone, but states are still offering big incentives. NY: 25% (up to $5k), MA: 15% (up to $1k), MD: $1k rebate. Plus property/sales tax exemptions in most states.

New legislation in Texas is creating headwinds for the state's robust renewable energy sector New legislation in Texas is creating headwinds for the state's robust renewable energy sector. This bill, derisively referred to as a "one big beautiful bill," is introducing significant uncertainty and potentially hindering the expansion of wind and solar power. Texas holds a leading position in U.S. renewable energy production, making these developments particularly impactful. A key element of the bill establishes a deadline for renewable energy projects to qualify for tax credits and incentives. Projects initiated after this date will be ineligible, creating a sudden cutoff that discourages investment in new developments. This policy shift has generated apprehension within the industry, as developers now face an unpredictable investment climate. While an earlier, more restrictive proposal—including a potential tax on renewable energy—was removed, the remaining regulations still present considerable challenges. The consequences of this legislation are already being felt. Several renewable energy projects are experiencing delays or are at risk of cancellation. This slowdown has the potential to negatively affect job creation and overall investment within the Texas economy. Texas-based renewable energy companies may now be forced to re-evaluate their investment strategies, potentially seeking opportunities in states with more supportive policy environments. Texas's previous commitment to renewable energy has been driven by both economic opportunity and the state's abundant natural resources—namely, strong winds and plentiful sunshine. The current legislation appears to reflect a change in political priorities, moving away from the previous strong support for renewable energy initiatives. The dismissive nickname given to the bill highlights the discrepancy between its perceived positive branding and its actual detrimental effects on the renewable energy sector. Those most affected by this legislation include renewable energy developers, Texas government officials involved in the bill’s creation and passage, and industry observers like Arcelia Martin of Inside Climate News, who is reporting on the situation. To increase awareness of this developing situation, please share this article. Contact information for Arcelia Martin and links to her social media are available for further inquiries.

Governor Phil Murphy Takes Action to Mitigate Utility Price Increases in New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy has initiated a series of actions aimed at easing the impact of predicted utility price increases set to begin on June 1, 2025. Recognizing the significant burden these increases will place on New Jersey residents, Governor Murphy emphasized the need for the state’s four electric utilities to actively participate in finding solutions to the PJM cost crisis, citing their substantial profits over the past decade. The administration pledges to explore all possible avenues to lessen the impact on ratepayers. The New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (NJBPU), under the guidance of President Christine Guhl-Sadovy, is central to these mitigation efforts. The board recently approved a second Residential Energy Assistance Payment and is expanding the Universal Service Fund (USF) program to provide bill credits for customers earning up to 60% of the state's median income. Furthermore, a new allocation for the Community Solar Energy Program (CSEP) has been released, offering guaranteed savings and discounts of at least 15% for participants. The NJBPU is also advancing grid-scale solar projects through a Competitive Solar Solicitation. The administration highlights the importance of clean energy sources, particularly solar and storage, as crucial for long-term cost reduction and reliable power. To further stabilize energy costs, the NJBPU, acting on the Governor’s direction, has launched a Request for Information concerning nuclear generation and advanced nuclear technologies. Existing energy efficiency programs, already delivering $600 million in customer savings, will continue to generate further savings. Various assistance programs are accessible to utility customers, including the Universal Service Fund, Fresh Start Program, Payment Assistance for Gas and Electric (PAGE) Program, Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, Lifeline, NJ Shares, NJ Comfort Partners, and the Winter Termination Program, which prevents service disruption during the winter months. The Murphy Administration remains dedicated to ensuring affordable energy for all residents and assisting them in navigating these challenging times.

Check out this recently installed solar array in #ChevyChaseDC 🛠️ With #solarpanels on multiple sides of the roof, this wasn't a simple job, but that didn't daunt our experienced team! Thanks to DC's #solarincentives, the customer's estimated payback time is less than 3 years. Another solar win! 🌞

A graphic from Uprise Solar detailing how solar net metering works.

How does #netmetering work? We're glad you asked. Check out our graphic to see how electricity flows between your #solarpanels and the grid. Any excess power your panels generate is sent to the grid, and you receive credit from your utility company.
