SB 3125 introduces major changes to Hawaiʻi’s Renewable Energy Technologies Income Tax Credit, creating uncertainty for families, businesses and community projects planning or investing in solar.
The bill includes retroactive impacts on 2026 projects, new household income restrictions, a $40 million annual cap beginning in 2027, a new certification process and the repeal of the state solar tax credit after 2030.
For commercial projects, policy stability matters. Solar developments often involve long-term planning, financing, operational coordination and significant capital investment. Changes made after projects are already underway can create uncertainty for businesses, nonprofits, affordable housing developments and community facilities working toward long-term energy resilience.
At Hawaiʻi Pacific Solar, we believe Hawaiʻi’s clean energy future depends on clear, fair and predictable policy that allows businesses and organizations to plan with confidence.
