Answer a few quick questions and see which Minnesota credits, rebates and utility programs likely apply to your project — solar, battery, EV charging, efficiency and electrical upgrades. Built on current 2026 rules for the metro. We confirm the exact amounts at your free consult.
No. The federal residential solar credit (25D) ended December 31, 2025. The 30% ITC now applies only to commercial and agricultural projects, which must begin construction by July 4, 2026 or be placed in service by Dec 31, 2027. Homeowners still have Minnesota’s sales- and property-tax exemptions, net metering, and — on Xcel — Solar*Rewards.
Broadly, a household at or below about 80% of your area’s median income. Income-qualified households unlock extra community-solar perks and, on some utility and state programs, higher rebate tiers. We help you confirm the exact threshold for your address.
Many utility and city rebates — and Xcel Solar*Rewards — run on limited annual budgets and close once the money is committed. That’s why the tool flags them as capacity-limited: timing matters, so we file early on your behalf.
No — it shows which programs likely apply, not final figures. Amounts depend on your system size, property, utility and income, and programs change mid-year. You get a written, itemized breakdown at your free assessment.
It cross-checks your project type, city, utility and income against a Minnesota-metro ruleset of current 2026 programs — federal, state, utility and local. It’s a starting map, not the final word. For the full written rundown, see our Minnesota solar incentives guide.
