Arkansas Solar REAP Grant

Solar Incentives in Arkansas

The Arkansas net metering policy allows commercial businesses to receive credits for excess energy that their solar system produces. Solar systems with a capacity up to 25 kilowatts (kW) are eligible for net metering at a rate of 1.5% of a utility's retail sales from the previous year. Credits can be applied to future utility bills to alleviate energy costs.

Some Arkansas districts offer the Property-Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) financing program, which allows commercial property owners to borrow money to pay for energy improvements and repay the borrowed money through property taxes based on a property value assessment.

The business Energy Investment Tax Credit program allows Arkansas businesses to claim 30% of their solar system costs as a federal tax credit. Additional tax credits are available depending on the district.
