Federal Solar ITC + Seattle City Light Solar Incentive

IRS / Seattle City Light

Available Solar & Renewable

About This Program

Seattle homeowners can claim the 30% federal Solar ITC on solar installations. Seattle City Light offers net metering that credits excess generation at the retail rate. Washington state exempts solar installations from sales tax and has a production incentive through Washington State University's Community Solar program. Washington has no state income tax, so federal ITC provides maximum value.
