Why do people love living in South Carolina? With it beautiful beaches, rich history, great weather and proximity to both the mountains and the coast, South Carolina has grown in popularity and many of its cities consistently rank on “best places to live” lists. Also, with lots of sun and several solar incentives, South Carolina is also a great place to make the switch to solar! When homeowners combine federal tax credits with state tax credits, they’ll be sure to save big on their solar system.
Net metering is applicable to all South Carolina residents. Every residential solar owner is entitled to credits for excess energy production. Those credits will be applied to the homeowner’s next utility bill and if there are excess credits at the end of the year, homeowners receive compensation.
South Carolina is one of the few states to offer state tax credits for going solar. The tax credit covers 25% of the cost of your solar system and can be carried over for up to ten years if you don’t pay enough in taxes in any one year.
