what if our farm income is less than 50% of the gross income because we also have fulltime job income that exceeds 50% of what we make of the combined income?

What % of applicants get the 50% grant? What is the scoring system based on? TY

The % awarded varies from state to state. For information specific to your locality, contact a local solar installer or agency who specializes in writing REAP Grants for these details. Criteria for scoring includes energy generated (saved/replaced), whether the applicant is a previous recipient, the length of the payback period, whether the project is located in a classified "disadvantaged" or "distressed" community, the environmental benefits, and possible additional criteria per state rules. More details can be found here: www.rd.usda.gov/inflation-reduction-act/rural-energy-america-program-reap Good luck with your project!

Do you help non-local farmers through the grant process, or just those who will have you do the install?

We're currently working in the Midwest, but highly recommend reaching out to the Amicus Solar Cooperative member closest to you for further assistance: www.amicussolar.com/our-member-owners/

Are there programs for Non-Profits?

The REAP Grant does not apply for non-profits but non-profits DO now qualify for the Federal Tax Credit incentive for solar through direct pay. Learn more here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2XSfXh5hal9m5o
