I purchased a new construction home with solar panels installed as part of the construction (I own the panels - not a lease). Can I claim this for a solar energy credit?
I do not have an exact value for the installation and cost of the panels, but I'm guessing my builder may be able to provide this information. Also the panels were not activated until a few months after I moved into my house.

Yes, this credit belongs to the homeowner, not the builder. Contact your builder and see if he will give you the required information.

2 spec homes built and completed in year 1 with solar panels installed and operational. Sold in year 2. I recently purchased one of these homes and was pushed back by the builders CPA that the credit belonged to the builder. What is different in the scenario wherein the ultimate owner and occupant gets the credit as you have stated. thank you for your insight. Guessing will need code / reg site to make them change view although it would seem now they already claimed it on their filed return, argh
