Federal solar incentives are in flux. This isn’t a guarantee, but this is what is being considered. A recently proposed Senate tax‑bill would phase down the 30 % Residential Clean Energy Credit, cutting it to 60 % in 2026, 30 % in 2027, and eliminating it entirely by mid‑2028. The House version goes further, ending homeowner credits outright after December 31, 2025. Meanwhile, at the state level, Arizona still offers generous support with 25 % state credit (up to $1,000), a full property‑tax exemption for solar systems, and utility rebates. Ask Angle Solar in Kingman about this legislation and they can help to keep you informed.
Is It Going Away?
Short answer: Possibly, but slowly. Under current law (IRA), the federal credit remains at 30 % through 2032. But both House and Senate bills threaten an early phase‑out. Installations completed by December 31, 2025, are still eligible for the full credit today, but after that, the window narrows quickly. If you are considering a solar system, now would be the time to investigate it. Angle Solar has been installing solar systems in Kingman for over 20 years. They can help you. They also build fine custom homes. Many of them have decided to install a solar system and receive all the future benefit.
How Does It Affect System Owners?
For Kingman homeowners, the impact is significant. A typical 5 kW system costs about $10,800 before incentives, meaning roughly $3,240 in federal savings today. If the credit shrinks or expires early, costs for homeowners rise by several thousand dollars. Moreover, third‑party‑owned (leased) systems may lose eligibility entirely after 2025 under both proposals. Arizona’s state and utility credits still help, but they don’t replace the federal savings. Let Angle Solar figure out you next steps. Call them for an estimate on putting in a solar system. They will give you a great price and help you get everything squared away before any of this new legislation goes through.
How To Prepare

Bottom line: For Kingman residents considering solar, 2025 is the critical year. Install early, maximize the 30 % federal credit, and take advantage of state and local incentives before any reduction begins.
