Policy Update: Act Now: The 30% Residential Federal Solar Tax Credit WILL End in 2025

Go Solar in 2025 Before the 30% Tax Credit Disappears and NJ Electric Rates Skyrocket

⚠️ URGENT: Go Solar in 2025 Before the 30% Tax Credit Disappears and NJ Electric Rates Skyrocket

Major changes are now official — and they could cost New Jersey homeowners thousands of dollars if they don’t act immediately.

On July 1, 2025, the Senate passed the “One Big Beautiful Bill,” which terminates the 30% Federal Solar Tax Credit (Section 25D) for residential systems placed in service after December 31, 2025 — nearly a decade earlier than originally planned.

Meanwhile, NJ utilities have confirmed electric rate hikes of 17–20% as of June 1, 2025, further driving up household energy bills.


🔥 What the New Law Means for Homeowners

Effective immediately, the legislation:

✅ Ends the 30% federal solar tax credit after December 31, 2025
✅ Requires your system to be fully installed and operational by that date
Eliminates all tax benefits for leased systems or solar PPAs
✅ Provides no phase-out period and no replacement incentives


💸 Why This Matters for New Jersey Residents

This isn’t just tax policy — it’s about your energy security and financial future.

➡️ NJ utility rates already rank among the highest in the country
➡️ Starting June 1, 2025, your bill already jumped by another 17–20%
➡️ Without the 30% credit, solar becomes significantly more expensive

But there’s still time to lock in your savings — if you act now.


🏡 NJ Solar Incentives Still Available in 2025

30% Federal Tax Credit (until 12/31/25)
SuSI Program: $85 per SREC for 15 years
0% Sales Tax on solar equipment in NJ
Property Tax Exemption for system value
Retail Net Metering (get full credit for extra solar)

These programs can slash your upfront costs and maximize long-term savings — but only if your system is installed and approved before the end of 2025.


⏳ Time Is Running Out

Permitting backlogs, utility delays, and high demand mean that December 31, 2025 will come faster than you think. Once the credit is gone, it’s gone — and New Jersey families could be left paying thousands more for the same system in 2026.
