Residential Energy Credits Solar Property

Can the credit be claimed for cost financed?  I have a client that paid zero cost in 2020, solar equipment was installed in November of 2020.  There is a financed amount of $37,556.  If I enter the amount financed in proseries a credit of 26% is calculated, and taxes withheld are refunded; it seems way to good to be true.

Any advice will be very much appreciated.

Thanks

Financed is the same as paying for it...most people dont pony up the amount for solar, they finance it.
