*The federal residential tax credit ended December 31, 2025 — here’s what solar and storage cost in Texas now*

Texans today are increasingly considering integrated solar and smart battery storage to secure predictable energy costs, renewable self-reliance, and the power to keep essential systems running—even through extended grid outages.

Ask yourself: What is energy security worth to your home or business?

Adding solar generation and battery storage transforms your property into a microgrid. Microgrids enable nearly any home or commercial facility to sustain on-site power production and storage, along with intelligent energy management. When the grid goes down, your microgrid keeps lights on, equipment powered, and life moving.

With record-breaking demand, escalating costs, and an overstressed grid, reliable and affordable electricity is no longer something Texans can take for granted. Over the past five years, our electricity costs here have climbed more than 19%, and the trend isn’t slowing. The sunsetting of federal renewable energy tax incentives at the grid-scale level may further accelerate the rate of rising energy costs for residents and businesses alike. Adding solar may reduce your exposure to volatile energy costs and help insulate your household or business from market swings. For solar-only systems in Texas, projected payback generally falls in the range of 8–12 years, depending on system design, site conditions, utility rate structure, and usage patterns. We model projected payback against your specific site and usage rather than rely on averages.

Federal incentives have changed. The residential clean energy credit (Section 25D) ended for systems placed in service after December 31, 2025, so new homeowner-owned projects should be modeled without it. Commercial projects may still be eligible for the Section 48E credit, subject to begin-construction and placed-in-service deadlines. Eligibility varies by project, utility, and policy, and we recommend confirming your position with a tax advisor. Let’s explore what solar and storage can do for you now and in the years ahead.
