Solar Incentives

GoSolarSF program (GSSF)

The GoSolarSF program provides incentives to citizens of San Francisco who buy solar systems for their buildings. GoSolarSF payments, which are managed by the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC), are based upon size of the system, with a maximum pay-out for each type of incentive they offer – low-income, commercial, residential, etc. 

California’s Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP)

Federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC)

The ITC incentive is a tax credit that applies to federal income taxes, which are a percentage of the total cost of the solar energy system or solar and paired battery storage system installed. For systems installed in 2020, the ITC is worth 26% – in 2021, the ITC is 22%. This credit is discontinued in 2022.
