Do home solar generators qualify for the 30% tax credit - Residential clean energy credit? Any specific requirements? Using it for hurricanes if power goes out and connecting to solar panels that come with it.

If it is powered by solar, yes. Generators used to generate electricity for your home may be eligible for federal energy tax credits if they meet certain government criteria. Your generator may qualify as a renewable energy source if it is powered by solar, wind, geothermal, or fuel cell energy. Qualified expenses include the costs of new clean energy property including:

Solar electric panels
Solar water heaters
Wind turbines
Geothermal heat pumps
Fuel cells
Battery storage technology (beginning in 2023)

Used (previously owned) clean energy property is not eligible.
