MY COMMENTS:


1.       No Louisiana state tax credit, but Louisiana residents are still eligible for the federal solar tax credit! 30% tax credit of the entire solar system cost! (according to sunpro solar) ifyou own, not lease the system.
2.       Louisiana does not include the value of a rooftop solar panel system in the taxable value of your home
3.       improves your Louisiana’s home value!
4.       Louisiana also has a statewide net metering policy for solar power generation. Net metering is a billing system that enables commercial and residential solar power producers to sell back extra energy to the grid.
5.       Renters: encourage your landlord to go solar.

7.       ARE THERE ANY FEMALE OWNED?
