Free rarely means no cost
The offer may be a loan, lease, PPA, or provider-owned structure. Payment, escalator, ownership, and home-sale terms matter as much as the headline.
Incentives need date checks
Federal, state, local, and utility programs can change. Verify current eligibility before relying on any credit, exemption, rebate, or export-credit assumption.
Backup power is separate
Solar panels do not automatically power a home during an outage. Battery design, critical loads, and grid isolation equipment must be reviewed separately.

Incentive reality
What to verify before trusting a free-solar claim
A quote should separate federal residential rules, provider-owned tax treatment, state and local program language, utility interconnection, and export-credit assumptions. Treat every incentive claim as date-sensitive until it is checked for the exact service address.
Check My ZIPFederal homeowner rules
IRS residential guidance changed after 2025. Verify current IRS guidance and tax advice before assuming any homeowner credit applies.
Provider-owned structures
Lease or PPA offers may rely on different business-side tax treatment. That is not the same as a homeowner claiming a personal credit.
State and local programs
State exemptions, rebates, and assessment rules vary by state and can change. Confirm the current program language before relying on a quote.
Utility interconnection
Investor-owned utilities, municipal utilities, and co-ops can use different forms, tariffs, and export rules for a specific service address.

Loan
May preserve homeowner ownership, but financing costs, dealer fees, liens, credit assumptions, and transfer terms must be reviewed.
Lease
Usually provider-owned. Compare monthly payment, escalator, maintenance, monitoring, production terms, and home-sale transfer rules.
Power purchase agreement
Usually provider-owned. Compare the contracted energy rate, rate escalator, buyout options, and whether the structure is available for the exact address.
