How much is the Prince George's County solar tax credit?

Up to $5,000 for residential solar installations. The county confirms eligibility, and we provide the documents it asks for.

Can I still get the federal solar tax credit?

Not for a homeowner-owned system; the federal 25D credit ended on January 1, 2026. The county credit and Maryland's incentives still apply.

Are Maryland SRECs worth registering?

Yes, though they are worth far less than DC credits. A 5 kW system makes about 6 MWh a year, and each MWh is one credit.

Do you install batteries in Prince George's County?

Yes, with new solar or added to an existing system, sized to what you want running during an outage.

The county credit

What the Prince George's County credit is worth

Prince George's County offers a local tax credit of up to $5,000 for solar installed on residential buildings. On a typical home system, that is a meaningful share of the cost, and it does not depend on owing federal taxes, which matters now that the federal homeowner credit has ended.

The county sets the rules and confirms eligibility. Our part is making sure the system, the invoice and the permit records are in order, so the application is straightforward.

How the numbers stack

Maryland production and Maryland credits

A 5 kW system in Maryland produces about 6 MWh a year. At the roughly $40 per credit one exchange listed for 2026 Maryland SRECs, that is a few hundred dollars a year in credits, small next to what the same production saves on the electric bill under full retail net metering.

That is why we design Prince George's County systems around usage first, and treat SRECs as a bonus. Maryland's net metering stays open to new customers until July 1, 2027, so timing matters if you have been thinking about it.

How a job runs

From design to permission to operate

We start from your Pepco bills, design the system and price it with the county credit and Maryland's sales tax exemption already reflected. Then come the permits, the utility interconnection, installation, inspection and permission to operate.

Once the system is running, we register it for Maryland SRECs and hand you the paperwork the county credit application needs. If you add a battery later, the same design leaves room for it.
