Does the federal commercial tax credit apply to battery backup systems?

The commercial investment tax credit (ITC) remains at 30 percent as of 2026 and applies to battery storage systems installed alongside commercial solar. Battery-only installations may also qualify under certain conditions. We recommend discussing specifics with a tax advisor familiar with energy property credits. The residential solar ITC expired December 31, 2025 and does not apply.
