Go Solar Now: Protect Your Profits Before Federal Incentives Disappear

Must read

Turn Your Tax Burden Into Business Savings

For most poultry farmers, energy is a large and unpredictable operating cost. And when your operation is profitable, a tax bill is never far behind. Solar isn’t just about sustainability. It’s a financial tool to reduce your taxable income, protect profits, and lower long-term energy costs.

Why the ITC Matters More Than Ever

After the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) passed on July 4, 2025, the 30% federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC) is being phased out for new commercial solar projects. That means projects that miss critical deadlines or rely on equipment from China, Russia, North Korea, or Iran will no longer qualify, instantly making solar 30% more expensive.

Bottom line: This is not about going green. The ITC is one of the most powerful tools available to retain more of your profits and keep your farm financially resilient.

Key Deadlines to Secure the Credit

Start construction by July 4, 2026:

● Have a binding contract in place and either start significant physical work or make a 5% financial investment.

● Complete the project within four years.

Finish by December 31, 2027:

● Projects that miss the 2026 start deadline must still be fully installed and placed in service by the end of 2027.

This is truly a closing window of opportunity. As the deadlines approach and incentives phase out, demand for solar materials will spike, driving up prices and making project scheduling more competitive.

How Ag Solar Helps You Maximize Incentives

Even with reduced tax incentives, the administration continues to support energy independence in agriculture. USDA grants are still available to help family farms go solar.
