REAP is the Rural Energy for America Program.  This helps farmers & rural business owners access renewable & efficient energy technologies.

What is a USDA Solar REAP Grant?

A REAP Grant will offset build costs up to 40%.  This improves solar energy payback time to under 5 years in some cases.  And the system will give you 30 years of guaranteed life!  Minnesota farmers and business owners who are awarded the REAP Grant are still eligible for the 30% investment tax credit and depreciation tax benefits.

There are 2 groups who are eligible for REAP Grants

  1. The first group are Farmers who have 50% or more of gross income from agricultural operations.
  2. The second are rural area small businesses whose net worth is less than $15 million.  Click the link to see if you land in the rural area eligibility zone.
