Solar Thermal: The sun is the single largest source of energy known today.

In order to make renewable energy from the sun more widely used the US federal government provides a 30% investment tax credit (ITC) for the installation of a solar system in a home or business. Additionally all states in the union offer similar tax rebate incentives, rebates and grants that can be taken in combination with the federal ITC.
