Start saving with solar. Incentives in Hawaii

Your electricity bills are too high…and electricity is getting more expensive. But you’re at the mercy of your utility company and rates aren’t going down. What’s worse is that energy made by utilities comes at a high cost – our planet and our health.

Financial Benefits

The solar investment tax credit (ITC) is a dollar-for-dollar reduction in the income taxes that a person or company claiming the credit would otherwise pay the federal government.

Environmental Benefits

The sun is the most abundant source of energy available. In fact, the sun produces more energy in an hour than humanity uses in an entire year! Reducing our carbon footprint is critical to ensuring our planet can provide a safe environment for generations to come.

Sunspear Energy Named Top Solar Contractor 2025

HONOLULU, HI, July 24, 2025 – Sunspear Energy, a leader in residential and commercial solar development in Hawai’i, has been recognized as one of the nation’s premier solar companies on Solar Power World’s 2025 Top Solar Contractors List for the second year in a row. The company ranks No. 327 overall in the United States and holds the No. 3 spot for developers in the Hawaii residential solar market.

The Top Solar Contractors List is the most recognized annual listing of solar contractors in the U.S. The list acknowledges the top solar developers, installers, and contractors driving progress in domestic energy production and helping meet the growing demand for affordable, reliable electricity in the United States. Rankings are based on the number of kilowatts (kW) installed in the previous year and categorized by service type, market, and state.

“Being named a Top Solar Contractor is a testament to our team’s deep commitment to developing innovative, accessible energy solutions for Hawaii homeowners and businesses,” said Jeff Kaemmerlen, CEO and founder of Sunspear Energy. “We’re proud to partner with homeowners, businesses, landowners, and municipalities to deliver real economic value and strengthen local infrastructure through our solutions. It’s an honor to be included among the top contractors shaping the future of Hawaiian energy.”

In 2024 alone, Sunspear installed 1,403 kilowatts of new residential solar capacity, and over 1,400 kilowatts to new commercial solar projects, contributing to a record-breaking year for the solar industry. Nearly 50 gigawatts (GW) of new solar capacity were added to the U.S. grid in 2024, with solar and storage accounting for 84% of all new electric generating capacity, more than any other energy technology in over two decades.

“At a time when the federal government is doing everything it can to cut solar power down, the gigawatts put up by our 2025 Top Solar Contractors emphasize just how crucial it is to our nation’s energy mix,” said Kelsey Misbrener, managing editor of Solar Power World. “From the smallest residential projects to the largest utility-scale solar farms, these installations keep the lights on and keep power affordable. We’re thrilled to recognize another outstanding class of Top Solar Contractors and look forward to persevering through legislative hurdles to celebrate our 15-year edition next year.”

Since its founding in 2017, Sunspear Energy has installed over 26,000 kW of residential and commercial solar projects across Oahu, Big Island, and Maui, Hawaii.

Commercial Solar: Effects of “One Big Beautiful Bill” on Projects

The massive budget reconciliation bill that President Trump signed on July 4, 2025, may set off a rush to start construction of more projects by year end 2025 and again by early July 2026 to qualify for federal tax credits. 

If you’re a business owner or operator of a commercial facility (including non-profits) and are considering solar, the clock is ticking to start projects and lock in the incentives that will yield the best project economics and reduce facility energy costs.
