Federal Solar Tax Credit

The Residential Clean Energy Credit provides a tax credit equal to 30% of the total cost to install solar panels on your home from 2022 through 2032. This substantial incentive reduces overall expenses and helps you invest in clean, renewable energy solutions, leading to long-term savings.

Net Metering

Virginia’s net metering policies let you earn credits for extra electricity your solar panels generate and send to the grid. These credits can offset your utility purchases when the panels aren’t producing enough energy. This incentive is available only to early adopters.

Solar Renewable Energy Certificates (SRECs)

In Virginia’s voluntary SREC market, you earn certificates for each megawatt-hour (MWh) your system generates. These certificates can be sold or traded to utilities or others to meet renewable energy goals, offering an extra revenue stream for you.

Property Tax Exemption

Virginia provides a property tax exemption for solar energy equipment. The added value of a solar system is exempt from local property taxes. This lowers the overall cost of ownership and enhances the financial benefits of installing solar panels on your property.

FAQs

Your Questions about Solar

How do solar panels work?

Solar panels work by converting sunlight into electricity through the use of photovoltaic (PV) cells. These cells absorb sunlight and generate direct current (DC) electricity. An inverter then converts this DC electricity into alternating current (AC), which is used to power your home.

Solar panels generally require minimal maintenance. Regularly cleaning the panels to remove dust, debris, and bird droppings can help maintain optimal efficiency. We also recommend a professional inspection every few years to check for any potential issues with wiring, connections, or the mounting system.

Solar panels typically have a lifespan of 25 to 30 years. Most manufacturers provide warranties that guarantee a certain level of performance for 20 to 25 years. Over time, the efficiency of solar panels may decrease slightly, but they will continue to generate electricity for many years beyond their warranty period. At NVB Contracting, we offer 25-year warranties for solar panels we install.

Solar panels can still generate electricity on cloudy days, although their output will be reduced compared to sunny days. They do not produce electricity at night. However, pairing your solar panels with a battery storage system can provide power during nighttime or cloudy periods by storing excess energy generated during sunny days.

Solar panels are a worthwhile investment for many homeowners. They can significantly reduce or even eliminate electricity bills, increase property value, and provide a hedge against rising energy costs. Additionally, incentives can lower the initial cost, making solar panels an economically and environmentally sound choice.
