The federal Residential Clean Energy Credit knocks 30% off the cost of a solar system — and qualifying battery storage — right off your federal tax bill. On a $24,000 system that’s $7,200. It’s a credit, not a deduction, so it reduces tax dollar-for-dollar; if you can’t use it all in one year, the balance carries forward. Confirm your eligibility with a tax pro before counting on it.
