Tax credit #01

Federal Residential Clean Energy Credit (Section 25D) - ENDED

The 30 percent federal Residential Clean Energy Credit under Section 25D expired for property placed in service after December 31, 2025. Cash and loan purchases made now receive no federal tax credit. A quote that still applies it is overstating your return.

Tax credit #02

Federal Commercial ITC (Section 48E) - via Lease / PPA

Section 48E, the commercial Clean Electricity Investment Credit, survives at 30 percent and is available to third-party owners of residential systems under leases and power purchase agreements. The provider claims it and may reflect part of the value in the rate offered. Ask what they claim and what actually reaches you, and confirm with a tax advisor.

Tax credit #03

Property Tax Exemption - STRUCK DOWN in 2022

On August 9, 2022 the Missouri Supreme Court issued its decision in Johnson v. Springfield Solar 1, LLC (SC99441), holding that the exemption for solar energy systems not held for resale under Section 137.100(10) is unconstitutional. The court reasoned that the Missouri Constitution delineates the categories of property that may be exempt and that the legislature lacked authority to create an exemption outside them. The State Tax Commission has since issued guidance to assessors on the assessment of solar property following the decision. Most solar guides still list a Missouri property tax exemption. Ask your county assessor directly how residential solar is being assessed at your address rather than assuming an exemption applies.

Rebate #04

Utility Solar Rebates - largely discontinued

Missouri investor-owned utilities historically ran solar rebate programmes, but these have largely been discontinued. Confirm directly with your own utility whether any rebate is currently open, what it pays and whether funding remains, rather than relying on a guide or a sales presentation. Treat a rebate in a quote as something to verify before you sign.

Net metering · Missouri

Net metering under the Easy Connection Act (Sec. 386.890 RSMo)

Missouri's Net Metering and Easy Connection Act, Section 386.890 RSMo, establishes standards for interconnecting qualified net metering units of 100 kW or less. It applies to all regulated electric utilities, to municipal electric utilities and to rural electric cooperatives, which are required to adopt policies establishing a simple contract for interconnection and net metering. Standard residential tariffs apply a retail-rate offset for in-period consumption, with year-end surplus reconciled at avoided cost rather than retail. For systems of ten kilowatts or less the application uses an all-in-one document combining a simple interconnection request, simple procedures and a brief set of terms and conditions, and the utility must review and respond within 30 days; for larger systems up to 100 kW the response window is 90 days.

Worth checking before you sign: taking a rebate can change your net-metering terms, and export credit rules differ by utility. Your matched installer confirms the exact numbers for your address.
