Karl et.al. We are still uncertain as to the date of effectiveness for the various sweeteners included in the Bill - this from CalSeia = "...........HR 1424 and found this provision that I know you will all want to know in black-and-white terms: (f) (2) SOLAR ELECTRIC PROPERTY LIMITATION.—The amendments made by subsection (b) shall apply to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2008."
It would make sense that the sweeping urgency which propelled this Rescue Plan through Congress and over to the President's Desk was not also shared by the 'earmarks.' Also note the reference to 'solar electric.,' I do not believe the cap for res thermal was lifted. Patrick Redgate Ameco Solar In a message dated 10/5/2008 12:43:22 P.M.

I've seen various languages, but don't know which one was the final one passed. I've seen no cap, and 30% of system up to $4000, and uncapped for PV, but hasn't been specified for thermal . apparently all the provisions of the bill went into effect friday, when the bill was signed. understandable for the wall street portions, unexpected benefit to us, is it went into effect immediately, any system not installed will benefit.
