We are about to restock on panels and have been offered pallets that are still out in the Pacific. When they arrive, will anyone contracting to buy them be liable for new tariffs, and will there be Solar Tax Credits be available for households buying panels from "Foreign Entity of Concern?"

ASES members who may not yet have solar panels or want to upgrade their system with more panels and batteries.
The clock is ticking on one of the most valuable home energy incentives in history: The 30% federal solar tax credit officially expires on January 1, 2026, leaving homeowners with a limited window to lock in maximum savings-especially as installers book up fast as many shoppers rush to beat the deadline.
Join Energy Sage for a free webinar where they'll provide step-by-step instructions on how to qualify for the full $9,000+ credit before the incentive vanishes. Their solar and tax experts will walk you through installation timelines, tax filing tips, and host a live Q&A-register here!
Then please post back in this forum if you found the session informative.
