HI Eric,
The DSIRE website lists the incentives, there is no requirement for grid tie. Have your CPA or attorney verify, you can also query the IRS. Ag systems filing Schedule F qualify for REAP grants from the USDA. I have done several grants and we always add the ITC and depreciation. REAP grants only apply to rural business uses, not residences. On another completely different subject: I started using CIGS modules with string inverters in the last several months, and am very happy with the results. Curiously on Monday a system facing 205, south by southwest at 4 in 12 slope with 48 CIGS 150 mods on an SMA 6000TL was reading 6100 Watts under light cloudy skies at 4 PM. On Tuesday it was reading 5000 watts under clear skies at 1 PM a bit better than expected. Local PV research guy says CIGS like diffuse light. Anybody else have experience with these kind of mods?

To be more specific, there are two wells that will be solarized. One well will provide irrigation water to livestock on the homeowner's property. The other well will provide drinking water to a future residence (not yet built) on the property. >From what I'm reading online, the answer is yes but the actual IRS tax form doesn't address this application and I've been told by a friend that the answer is no.

I have hundreds of Magnum inverter installations, perhaps I or others can help.

I've got a problem with an inverter that tech support won't or can't help with. thanks jay peltz power _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Redwood Alliance List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org Change listserver email address & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org/maillist.html List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm Check out or update participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org
