Laid out in Section 48 of the U.S. tax code, the business ITC provides an incentive for investing in clean energy by giving you credit on your taxes equal to a percentage of the cost of your solar panel system. As a result of the Inflation Reduction Act in 2022, the ITC was reset to 30% and extended for the next decade at least.
