5. 2.2 Rebates and Incentives
This section summarizes all incentives available for this project. The actual rebate and incentive amounts
for this project are shown in each example.
Business Energy Investment Tax Credit (ITC)
Businesses that install solar photovoltaic (PV) systems are eligible to receive a tax credit in the amount of
30% of the total PV system cost. Unlike tax deductions, this tax credit can be used to directly o땚䋚set your tax
liability dollar for dollar. If your tax credit exceeds your tax liability you can roll the credit into future tax
periods for 20 years.
System Cost x 30% = Federal Tax Credit
$230,000 x 30% = $69,000
Federal Modied Accelerated Cost-Recovery System (MACRS)
Under the federal Modied Cost Recovery System (MACRS), businesses may recover investments in certain
property through depreciation deductions. The MACRS establishes a set of class lives for various types of
property over which the property may be depreciated. For PV systems, the taxable basis of the equipment
must be reduced by 50% of any federal tax credits associated with the system.
Year Federal Tax Deduction
1 $39,100
2 $62,560
3 $37,536
4 $22,522
5 $22,522
6 $11,261
Totals: $195,500
State (NC) North Carolina Deprecation Schedule
According to the North Carolina 2015 Cost Index and Depreciation Schedules
(http://www.dor.state.nc.us/publications/cost_archive/15archive/2015_costindex.pdf). Solar Photovoltaic
equipment has a specied life of 18 years. The annual deprecation schedule is as follows: 6%, 5%, 4%, 4%,
5%, 2%, 0 %, 4%, 3%, 6%, 6 %, 8%, 8 %, 7%, 7 %.
