Even though Alaska's average temperature during summers is only 22°C or 71.6°F (-1.1°C or 30.02°F during winters), the solar industry is slowly but surely flourishing. In fact, Alaska beats Louisiana (with an average temperature of 86°F) in terms of solar returns per dollar invested.
Recently, a study showed that the average cost of electricity in Alaska over a span of 25 years would tally around $60,294. However, if home solar systems are avidly purchased by people across the state, their cost would sink to $46,374. Hence, you will save as much as $14,000.
As far as solar incentive schemes are concerned, Alaskans will benefit from the Federal Solar Tax Credit Program. Therefore, if you purchase a solar system, under this program you will get 26% of the costs after a year.
Above all, you can buy a solar system under solar loan. Under this loan, you will be liable to pay a small amount per month. For instance, the average solar system costs $30,600. If you choose a solar loan in Alaska, you would only need to pay $234 per month.
