Federal Incentives
From tax credits to rebates, from EVs to solar panels, and from heat pumps to charging stations, there has never been a better time to make needed changes. Due to the nature of politics and government, some incentives are newer and still being rolled out, including a large suite of incentives that came from the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act. We urge you to take action and help make a difference. And please spread the word! Here are some websites with more info on federal incentives:
