Solar power in Goodyear, Arizona
Goodyear solar customers can benefit from APS's net metering program. APS will add up how much unused energy your solar system has sent to their grid and how much has been drawn from their grid when the solar cannot meet the loads of the house. If more power is exported than imported APS will write you a check for that power at their retail power rate per kWh this whole process is know as net metering. Arizona also offers homes and businesses a 25% tax credit up to $1,000. There is also the federal tax credit of 30%, this credit can be used over many years and there's no limit on how big a system can be to receive this. You subtract your state tax credit and other rebates prior to the federal level one. Many utilities and legislatures are trying hard to kill off these incentives so don't think about it too much longer.
