If you upgraded the electrical panel as part of the solar installation, you can add the cost of the panel installation to the total solar costs when entering information in TurboTax for the home energy credit.

The separate electrical panel board credit is only for improvement or replacement of enabling property such as air conditioners or heat pumps. Solar energy is not part of this credit.

To enter solar installation costs in TurboTax Online, go to:

Deductions & Credits>Your Home>Home Energy Credits

See this TurboTax article for information on which home improvements qualify for the energy tax credit.
