Don’t Miss Out: The 30% Federal Solar Tax Credit Ends This Year for Columbus Homeowners

If you’re a homeowner in the Cincinnati area thinking about going solar, now is the time to act. The 30% Federal Solar Tax Credit, one of the most valuable incentives available for residential solar installations, is ending on December 31, 2025.

This is your last chance to lock in thousands of dollars in savings—before it’s gone for good.

What Is the Solar Tax Credit?

The Federal Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC) allows you to deduct 30% of your total solar system cost—including installation, equipment, and related upgrades—directly from your federal tax bill.

A $30,000 solar system, for example, would qualify for a $9,000 credit. That’s real money back in your pocket, and it significantly lowers the upfront cost of going solar.

What Happens After 2025?

Unless new legislation extends it, the residential solar credit ends after this year. That means:

  • No more 30% tax savings
  • Higher out-of-pocket costs
  • Longer payback periods

For Cincinnati homeowners looking to take control of their energy costs, waiting could mean missing out on the best financial opportunity to go solar.

Why Cincinnati Homeowners Should Act Now

Duke Energy and other utilities in the Cincinnati metro area continue to raise rates. Going solar can:

  • Stabilize your monthly energy costs
  • Boost your home’s resale value
  • Protect against unpredictable price hikes
  • Help you live more sustainably

But to qualify for the tax credit, your system must be installed and operational by December 31, 2025. Permitting and utility timelines can add weeks or months to the process, so planning ahead is critical.
