Solar Tax Credit for Skylights

    Several federal laws support tax incentives for clean energy improvements, including the Emergency Stabilization Act of 2008, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), and the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. These laws offer tax credits for qualifying renewable technologies such as solar electric property, heat pumps, solar panels, and other energy-efficient upgrades.

    If you are considering purchasing solar-powered skylights or related products, check with your tax professional about solar tax credit eligibility. While solar-related products may qualify under the current tax guidelines, VELUX no longer certifies products for the solar tax credit program.
