- Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP) – Although California doesn’t offer a statewide tax credit, it does offer incentives for homeowners to install renewable energy generation equipment at their home. California’s SGIP is one of the most innovative incentives in the country.
- Property tax exemption – Adding a solar energy system can increase your home’s value by $20 for every watt of solar capacity you install, but that doesn’t mean you have to pay higher property taxes. California has a property tax exemption for that added value.
