Solar Thermal Tax Credit Caps

A couple of posts ago I wrote that the rebate caps on residential solar had been lifted starting in 2009. The information came from what is usually a reliable source, but as it was there was some confusion about the topic in the weeks following the passing of the renewable energy bill last fall.

Turns out the cap was lifted for PV, but not for solar thermal. Too bad - it reflects true ignorance of the real value of solar thermal.

Even so, solar water heating remains an economically attractive renewable energy source - even in Wisconsin.

See our website ( www.MarathonRenewableEnergy.com ) for more information on solar water heating in Wisconsin - or call us at 715-218-8654 and Dan will tell you everything you ever wanted to know about the topic. (Be sure to set aside a chunk of time - he's kind of like a walking encyclopedia.)
