Federal Solar Tax Credit
Not only can you get an Alaska solar system for $0 down from Sunnova, but if you own your system, you could also be eligible to claim up to 30% of your installed system’s cost on your federal taxes.*
The availability and specifics of Alaska solar incentives can change, and there might be additional programs introduced in the future. Sunnova does not provide tax advice, so before making any decisions, it's advisable to reach out to your tax advisor or the state government's official websites for the most up-to-date information on home solar incentives in Alaska.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, your Alaska solar system will still capture and convert light into electricity during rainy, snowy or cloudy weather — however, you can expect solar production to be lower. So, if you live in an area that gets a lot of rain, snow or has overcast days throughout the year, don’t rule out solar power.
Yes, when you first fill out your application, Sunnova will perform a soft credit check to help verify your identity and determine your eligibility for a Alaska solar energy plan. This soft inquiry won’t impact your credit score. However, if you’re applying for a solar loan, your soft inquiry will convert to a hard inquiry within 30 days of the sale.
You can monitor your Alaska solar panel production in your MySunnova customer portal. Keep in mind that your production data is delayed approximately 24 hours.
