Sales Tax Exemption


One of the main financial incentives for Washington State residents interested in installing solar has been the Washington State Sales Tax Exemption. This tax incentive was set to expire on Sunday, June 30th and dramatically increased the length of time for a typical PV system to pay itself off. Artisan Electric has been working overtime to ensure that all of our customers could get their solar tax-free before the incentive expired, but we couldn't meet the needs of everybody before June 30th. In fact, the whole solar industry has been suffering from capacity issues over the last few months, so there's definitely been a huge strain on all of us.

Luckily, over the weekend the Washington State House and Senate “heroically” passed a budget bill in the 11th hour which included an extension for the solar sales tax exemption to 2018. This extension will not only allow Artisan Electric to provide a better price to our customers for the Solarize Central/Southeast and beyond, it will increase the amount of solar installations across the state. And that, after all, is what it's all about.

Although the EPC must be so for the signing of the agreement or the deed, already present, a clause relating to the EPC are included. In the notarial deed The notary notification to the Flemish Energy Agency (VEA) if no EPC is present.
