EV Purchase Rebate & Tax Credits

Solar Tax Credit & Net Metering

Iowa does not offer a state solar income tax credit. Net metering: Net metering is available in Iowa under Iowa Code 476.47. Excess generation is credited at the retail rate for systems up to 500 kW.

Additional State Programs

Iowa offers a small alternative energy tax credit that may apply to home solar and EV charging equipment, but no direct EV purchase incentive.
