More about solar power in Maine

Like in many other states that provide solar energy rebates, Maine's solar rebate program has been a victim of its own success: in the past, program funds have been quickly depleted because so many Mainers signed up to receive rebates. This is a good indication that interest in solar power in Maine is alive and well. As of mid-2009, additional funds for solar rebates were expected to become available in January 2010. See our Maine solar incentive page for more info, or check in with the Maine Public Utilities Commission website for the latest details and updates.

Beyond state-sponsored initiatives, don't forget about the helpful renewable energy tax credit available from the federal government. Individuals and businesses in Maine who install a solar energy system can take a credit worth up to 30 percent of the system's installed costs. Any excess credit may be carried forward to the subsequent tax year. What's more, for commercial solar power systems installed in 2009 and 2010, companies can opt instead to receive a solar energy grant equal to the 30-percent tax credit. Simply put, it's a great time for Maine businesses (and residents) to install solar panels or a solar thermal system.
