Energy saving tax credits

With the fiscal cliff looming, Congress will be cutting various tax incentives. This may be a good time to add solar panels to your house and collect both federal and state income tax credits. Solar tax credit:
Federal: 30% of cost of solar panels & installation

Utah: http://energy.gov/savings/renewable-energy-systems-tax-credit-personal
state income tax credit up to $2,000 for 25% of cost of residential solar

Plug-in vehicles are also eligible for a $2500 federal income tax credit. If you are in the market for a new vehicle, check out the plug-in Prius. See: http://www.irs.gov/Businesses/Qualified-Vehicles-Acquired-after-12-31-2009
