Smartico Energy is an independent solar analytics provider. We are not a solar installation company. Our mission is to provide homeowners with unbiased data, ROI projections, and incentive reports to help them make informed decisions before talking to a salesperson.
Yes. Our basic solar potential report is 100% free for homeowners in Texas and Arizona. We believe that everyone should have access to transparent energy data without any upfront costs or pressure to buy equipment.
Our analytics engine uses a combination of your local zip code data, current utility rates from providers (like Austin Energy or CPS), local sunlight exposure (NASA data), and the latest 2026 Federal Tax Credit (ITC) regulations.
In Texas and Arizona, there are specific property tax exemptions for solar installations. This means that while solar panels increase the market value of your home, that added value is typically exempt from your property tax appraisal.
Your privacy is our priority. We only share your information with our highly-vetted partners if you explicitly request a professional quote after reviewing your independent report. All data handling is compliant with CCPA and TCPA regulations.
Currently, the Investment Tax Credit (ITC) allows homeowners to deduct 30% of the total cost of their solar system installation from their federal income taxes. This includes the panels, labor, and battery storage systems.
Once you complete our 2-minute “Solar Savings Calculator” form, our system processes the data and generates your initial results almost instantly. A detailed analysis is then sent to your provided email address.
