More about solar power in Nevada

There are tons of reasons to be excited about solar power in Nevada. Just think about this: the state is home to Nevada Solar One, the world's third-largest concentrating solar power plant in the world. The 400-acre, 64 megawatt plant generates enough electricity to power 14,000 homes each year. That's not all Nevada has going for it on the solar energy front: the state's NV Energy RenewableGenerations Rebate Program provides a $2.10/watt cash incentives to individuals and businesses who install a solar energy system. For the 2009-10 and 2010-11 program years, the maximum rebate was set at $10,500 for residential solar systems and $63,000 for small commercial solar systems. See the Nevada Power website for more information. Beyond the NV state rebate program, the federal government provides a 30-percent renewable energy tax credit** for both individuals and businesses. Any excess credit may be carried forward one year. Taken together, these programs can dramatically reduce the upfront costs associated with installing solar photovoltaic (PV) panels.

**Important note: for commercial systems installed in 2009 and 2010, businesses can opt to receive a solar energy grant -- still worth 30 percent of system costs -- instead of the solar tax credit.
