Important federal update: Under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, the federal residential solar tax credit for homeowner-owned systems (purchased with cash/loan) ends after December 31, 2025. Third-party owners (lease/PPA providers) may still qualify for a federal credit through 2027, which can make leases more attractive in 2026–2027 depending on eligibility rules. IRS+1
