Earlier this month, the federal government quietly passed new legislation that could significantly impact how millions of Americans claim clean energy incentives—but almost no one noticed.
Casually nicknamed the “Big Beautiful Bill,” the new policy introduces firm deadlines for accessing the popular 30% federal solar tax credit (ITC) and adds sourcing restrictions that could leave late adopters out entirely.
If you’re a Florida homeowner thinking about upgrading your energy system—or just want to lock in eligibility—now is the time to act.
What Changed?
Until recently, most people assumed the full 30% energy tax credit would remain untouched through 2032. But the new bill changes two critical details:
-
Projects must begin construction by July 4, 2026
-
Systems must be placed in service by December 31, 2027
Missing either deadline could result in a significantly reduced tax credit—or no credit at all—due to new sourcing rules.
Why It Matters
The bill hasn’t received much national coverage, but it directly affects thousands of families across Florida.
Sandra R., a homeowner in Sarasota, only heard about it by chance. “A neighbor mentioned a website that showed how to lock in the current credit,” she says. “I figured it was a gimmick, but I checked anyway.”
That website was EnergyPro Advisors, where she learned that under the new rules, qualified homeowners can still:
-
Secure the 30% federal tax credit (ITC)
-
Access MACRS accelerated depreciation, even for certain residential cases
-
Install $0-down systems that activate this year to lock in eligibility
“It’s the kind of thing most people won’t find out about until it’s too late,” says Energy Advisor Miguel Ortiz.

Just like Sandra, you can quietly check your eligibility using our simple online tool. She submitted her pre-qualification the same day—and within a week, had her system scheduled and locked in under current terms.
“I didn’t even know homeowners could use depreciation,” Sandra adds. “But they walked me through it. It made a big difference.”
Don’t wait until the credit shrinks.
