What's Still Available in 2026

‍

Act Before January 1, 2027

The California property tax exclusion sunsets on January 1, 2027 unless extended. Your system must be:

• Fully completed

• Connected and active with CAISO

before the deadline to qualify. This could save you thousands annually in property taxes.

‍

How to Still Get 30% Value in 2026

Most North Hills homeowners now use tax equity partnerships:

• Third-party partner claims the federal credit on your behalf

• Partner reduces system cost or offers lower monthly payment

• You benefit from the credit without filing it on your tax return

• Systems must use non-FEOC (Foreign Entity of Concern) equipment to qualify

Example: A $42,000 14 kW large home system can drop to ~$29,400 equivalent through tax equity pricing — same savings as the old ITC, just structured differently.
