Amid increasingly hot summers and high utility bills, solar and storage are helping to keep the lights on and the AC pumping for Arizona. But state lawmakers are considering a bill to repeal the tax credit to install local, affordable solar. With energy demand continuing to skyrocket, we need all of the new electrons on the grid that we can get as fast as we can get them — and solar is one of the fastest and most affordable ways to add that much needed energy to the grid! Tell your legislators and Governor Hobbs to support energy affordability by protecting the tax credit and sales tax exemption for solar.

Why it’s important

In addition to keeping bills low in the face of soaring temperatures and heightened energy demand, solar and storage are some of the fastest technologies to come online. Global conflict has snarled supply chains for many energy sources, but solar panels can now be entirely produced in the U.S. and new projects are able to come online in a fraction of the time needed for other energy sources. With additional costs seeping into materials, transportation, and labor, the state’s tax credits help keep local, Arizona energy affordable.

What this means for your community

When you support maintaining Arizonia’s robust solar market, you can help keep electricity rates down and the grid reliable.

Our goal

By contacting your legislators, you can add your voice to ensure that Arizona protects energy policies that include growing solar power and battery storage to strengthen affordability and reliability.
