New Braunfels Utility (NBU) currently offers homeowners a solar rebate. Click your utility provider to learn more about the rebate and requirements. If you are a customer of NBU, you could potentially save up to $3,000 when you go solar.
Rebate Incentives for NBU*
(a) System Capacity (number of modules x PTC rating)
(b) Inverter Power Rating (number of inverters x power rating)
the lower number (a) or (b) x $0.45 per watt = Rebate Amount (max is $3,000)
This means…
if you had 15, 400-Watt Jinko solar panels with 15 Enphase microinverters installed on your roof, your rebate would be:
(a) 15 x 371.4 = 5,571 Watts
(b) 15 x 400 = 6,000 Watts
5,571 Watts x $0.45/Watt = $2,506.95
*Only the property owner may submit a rebate application to NBU – we cannot on your behalf.

Damn good. And fortunately, thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, the incentive tax credit will remain 30% until 2032. The push for homeowners to go solar has never been greater. Please consult a financial advisor to determine if you are eligible for the tax credit.
The Investment Tax Credit (ITC) is calculated by multiplying the applicable tax credit percentage (30% until 2032) by the “tax basis,” which is the amount invested in eligible property. Eligible property includes the following:
• Solar PV panels, inverters, racking, balance-of-system equipment, and sales and use taxes on the equipment
• Installation costs and indirect costs
• Step-up transformers, circuit breakers, and surge arrestors
• Energy storage devices (if charged by a renewable energy system more than 75% of the time)
There are no Energy Star Certified solar panels. The certification on the tax form is regarding other rebated sustainability improvements.
